Yes, the cost may be high, but that's why we are here. To pass the baton and leave a legacy.
What a wonderful message by our pastor at an event at my church. What would this world be like if we don't continue to teach our children, and grandchildren. God, and His beautiful message of salvation through Jesus Christ is being fizzled out.
I can already see how different this world is from when I was growing up. God was a priority. Now it seems like He's not that top priority and we are seeing the reproductions of that choice in many families, and in this world. It's so sad because it shouldn't be that hard to give the best to the One Who wakes us everyday.Look at Psalm 78: 1-8. God commanded that the stories of his mighty acts in Israel's history and His laws be passed on from parents to children. This shows the purpose and importance of helping each generation to obey God and set their hope on Him. It is important to keep children from repeating the same mistakes as we did. What are we doing to pass on the history of God's work to the next generation?
It's never too late to start. Our children now, and ones yet to be born have to live in a world that is changing rapidly, and not for the better as we can see. Don't you care? We have been given a command. All of us.
Teach them the solid ground to stand upon with no compromises!
Heavenly Father, what breaks Your heart may it break ours. May we be loyal to You, as You have been so patient with us. May we not just follow you with words but with our hearts.
For Your glory Lord
