Legacy

I just finished watching the film "Whale Rider". I loved the end (spoiler ahead). In the end Pai (the heroine) is chanting her ancestral chant while her people (the Maori) row in their giant canoe. It was a beautiful scene of a people working together as one, while passing on their legacy to their children watching on the shore. It made me think of what we do and pass on. Will we pass on a Christianity based only on morals? Will we pass on a Christianity split because some believe that one must sprinkle to baptize while others believe that the Biblical way is to dip? Or will we, will I, leave a legacy of a people passionately in love with God, willing to follow our Lord Jesus anywhere? Will we be a divisive force? Or will we be the generation that reunites the body?
