Pass it On!

I will speak mysteries from the past- things we have heard and known and that our fathers have passed down to us.
We must not hide them from our children, but tell a future generation the praises of the Lord, his might, and the wonderful works He has performed. Psalm 78:2-4

I cannot just keep all I know about God's goodness to myself I must teach my grandchildren about the Lord.

When my children were little I did the same.

If I fail to pass on the message and allow it to be lost, my God will want an account of what I have been given. What did you do? What did you say?

An older mind and heart should have a deeper understanding of the things of God. Is this the case for you?

I know I know and understand things much clearer than I did before, say when I myself was young. This I can impart.

On 28th of this month I go to visit my grandchildren. It is time to prepare myself to impart, to give an account.

I sing a song about patience to the children, I need to find a new song to increase my repertoire. Singing grabs their attention and repetition embeds the message. I see them listening, it goes in.

In the psalm I am reading today, Asaph is recounting all of God's goodness. The history of God leading their forebears out of Egypt.

What is my song? What is yours?
