At the 2025 Global Leadership Summit, John Maxwell said something unforgettable: “People will describe your life in one sentence. So pick it now - because the work is stored up before it shows up.”

In other words, the legacy you leave won’t be written in paragraphs. It will be summed up in a sentence. And the life you live today is the raw material for that line.

Scripture says, “Well done, good and faithful servant.” (Matthew 25:23)

That’s the sentence I want. Not “he was busy,” not “he was successful,” not even “he was admired.” Just: faithful.

So what about you? If people were to describe your life in one sentence, what would it be? And more importantly, what will you choose it to be?

~~~~~

Until next time - grace, peace, and every blessing.
