Proverbs 10:7
The memory of the righteous will be a blessing, but the name of the wicked will rot.
So far as this world is concerned, every one of us will soon cease to be a man, and be no more than a memory. Every man leaves behind him some kind of a memory; and it depends entirely on what the man has been as to what the memory shall be. There are memories that do rot; those that dwell on them, and take a delight in them.
However short life may be, it is long enough for a man to do something that will leave a memory in the world which, when he is gone, shall be a blessing to other men. Every man and woman can choose if they will be remembered to praise or remembered to shame.
Application
What do you think people can talk about you? What are some changes that you have to make to make it a blessing memory? Pray through it.
