“But we will tell the generation to come the praises of the Lord, And His power and His wondrous works that He has done.” (Psalm 78: 4, NASB)
“We have a responsibility to the next generation … we share the blessing of the Lord with the next generation to help them set their hope in Him.
We want the next generation to remember the works of God. How easy it is to forget what He has done for us! The past must not be forgotten. Those who forget the past are condemned to repeat its mistakes …
We must share the things of the Lord with the younger generation so they will keep His commandments … Yes, we do have a responsibility to the new generation, and we fulfill that responsibility by being a good example, by teaching, sharing,and encouraging.
You are entrusted with your Christian heritage. When you share with the next generation the Word and works of God, you teach them valuable lessons about how He still works in the lives of His people. Strive to be an example that encourages the next generation to obey the Lord.”

A good admonition as well as encouragement.
What a privilege that responsibility is! May we be found faithful.
Yes! You are absolutely right. I pray we can all realize we each have this responsibility. Thank you for sharing.
Amen. You had me asking myself what I can do more to help those coming behind me know Him?
