Jim Elliot & The Auca's

Jim Elliot was a missionary who was speared to death while trying to spread the Gospel to the Auca Tribe in Ecuador. Sure, he was trying to spread the word of Christ... But did he do it? No. The only thing that remains of Jim Elliot is a failed attempt.

His life, if left at this, is totally insignificant. However, the legacy that he left behind made his life much more worthwhile. After Jim and his fellow 5 missionaries' deaths, the wives of the men, inspired, continued to minister to the Auca tribe. Today, the tribe is both peaceful and... (dun dun dunn) Christian. So why am I telling you this? Don't worry, I'm not telling you that you need to go and get yourself speared to death in Ecuador. Actually, I would highly reccommend not doing that. But the story of Jim Elliot is one that has been remembered. Books, movies, websites... Basically, the dude is a legend. My point to this whole tirade is that you need to get out there and do something worthwhile! Elliot took a risk. He put his life on the line for Christ. Take a minute and ask yourself... Would I do that? Would I risk my life for God? The answer to that question, for most of you, is most likely no. I'm sad to say that would most likely be my own answer if asked that question. And you know what? It's sad. But we can change that. Do something that would leave your own legacy! Start a charity. Write a book. Walk all across America. Do something to make yourself... And Christ... remembered! Overcome your shyness and anxiety and put yourself out there.
