Agenda for Life
“Agenda for Life
- Practice hiddenness.
- Do good. Expect nothing in return.
- Love your enemies. Love all people.
- Focus on others.
- Sowing and reaping. Remember, it takes time.”
I wrote those words inside the small New International Version New Testament that I carried throughout college. They were also written inside every other Bible I’ve had since then. I’ve looked at them hundreds, maybe thousands of times.
There were times when I lost passion for ministry and became confused about how I was supposed to live, and I would go back to those ideas and do a reset.
I heard those words while listening to Landon Saunders when I was eighteen or nineteen. From that moment, Landon became the voice of wisdom, reason, and hope I longed to hear whenever I had the opportunity. As I watched the streaming of his memorial services from Dallas, the clips shared of him speaking and the stories shared about how he lived brought tears to my eyes and conviction to my heart.
Thank you, Landon, for your impact on my life.
