"Please let there be a double portion of your spirit on me." 2 Kings 2:9
What is your legacy? What do you leave behind? Do your loved ones look forward to the things they will inherit? Or do they aspire to follow your example?
There is a story in scripture about a great prophet named Elijah, who granted his apprentice a request before he was taken up to God. The apprentice was so inspired by knowing Elijah that he asked for a double portion of Elijah's amazing spirit.
Similarly, the most meaningful thing you can leave for the next generation is your example of love and dedication to God.
Is that how you are living? Will others want a double portion of your spirit?
"These are things we learned from our ancestors, and we will tell them to the next generation. We won't keep secret the glorious deeds and the mighty miracles of the Lord." Psalm 78: 3 - 4
