Taken by God
By Mindy Johnson in General

So Enoch, in Genesis is taken from earth by God.  He "walked with God," the scriptures say.  So he doesn't die.  He gets a ticket to heaven without the pain or suffering of the dying process.  Pretty cool.
And that is about all the scriptures say about Enoch. 

That's pretty funny to me.  In the Bible, we hear all kinds of things about all kinds of people, and the man who "walks with God" and does not die gets a sentence or two.  Well, Elijah did not die either- but this is about Enoch.

So we can look back at history.  There are people who get their names recorded, who will be remembered for a time.  Some in recent past, some further back.  And most likely, their names have been, will be recorded because of impact, negative, or positive. 
And how long will they be remembered?

But how about the people whose names we will never know, but make big impacts on a heavenly scale.  The ones who may perhaps walk closer to God than most on this earth.  And their names are recorded on the hearts of people they have touched. 
I can remember times where people have done or said things that have impacted me- but I don't even know their name.

So think about it from what you and I do on a daily basis, and what impact we could have- just by making life personal.  wow.
