The psalmist reminds us that our time is short in Psalm 90:10, “The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.” And when our life draws to a close, Psalm 146:4 tells us that at that moment, all our intents and pursuits come to an end, “His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish.”
But there is an action you could take to create a lasting legacy, namely, to leave a gift to sustain the sharing of the gospel, such that others may have that opportunity to respond Jesus’ invitation in Matthew 11:28 “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest”.
Should you be considering a bequest to TIJ in your last will and testament, please find below three different suggested clauses, and make use of the one which most accurately describes your intended gift.
We are humbled that you would be thinking of us as you solemnly plan for this last stop on life’s journey, this side of the resurrection.
