The Future of our Children

Psalm 78:7 That they might set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God, but keep his commandments:

There are many hopes and desires that a parent holds for their children’s future. We want them to have a good life and have successful careers, chose a life partner that will stand by them through all the ups and downs of life. We spend 18 plus years of their lives training them to do what is right and to make choices that are smart. The journey before them, like all of us is unknown, we take each day as it comes. But in the face of the unknown, the one thing that we trust will go with them is their faith and hope in God. That they will not forget what God has done and what God can do. Living each day in the presence of God, listening to His voice and doing His will. The path they journey may be filled with thorns, and unpleasant events, even the lost of loved ones at an early age. We prepare our children for the road they will travel for we have no control of the road before them. May our children “set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God, but keep His commandments”
