There is a beautiful passage
found in Psalm 71:14-18 that tells us how we should live our lives, and share
what God has done.
As
for me, I will always have hope; I will praise you more and more. 15 My mouth will tell of your righteous deeds, of your saving acts all day long—though I know not how to relate them all. 16 I will come and proclaim your
mighty acts, Sovereign Lord; I will proclaim your righteous deeds, yours alone. 17 Since my youth, God, you have
taught me, and to this day I declare your marvelous deeds.
Look
what is said in the next verse about sharing with younger generations.
18 Even when I am old and gray, do not forsake me, my God, till I declare your power to the next generation,your mighty acts to all who are to come.
Those of us that are over 45
should take special note of this verse. We feel sometimes as we get older that
we’ve done our share, or we’re ready to “sit and soak” in our churches. This is
not Scriptural! Craig Groeschel says, If you are not dead – then you are not
done! Next Sunday is Back to Church Sunday – we all have someone we need to
talk (invite) to this week.
The conversation goes both
ways, and we both have things to teach each other. See you in church. Amen?
