The world has been admiring the creative genius of Steve Jobs. Steve wasn’t known as a deeply religious person. But he was a highly successful leader and entrepreneur. In spite of being one of the richest men on the planet, becoming aware of his imminent death caused him to say: “Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn’t matter to me. Going to bed at night saying we’ve done something wonderful...that’s what matters to me.”
That moment of truth will come to all of us. In spite of our position, wealth, or power, we end at the same place. Our accomplishments will be measured not by what we’ve gained, but by what we’ve given. Causing another great man to “give what you cannot keep to gain what you cannot lose. Riches don’t matter at Forest Lawn [Memorial Parks and Mortuaries]. Only what’s done for Christ will last.
