Memories to Pass On
My dear son,
I want the love I have given to continue beyond your generation. There is beauty in hearing the praise of those who came before and in watching those who follow rejoice in the grace you have received.
You do not need to make your story impressive. Speak honestly about moments of gratitude and ways you came to know my faithfulness. Listen to other people's stories, too, and praise my goodness together.
When you meet someone today, you can offer more than a lesson. Share a story of love you can enjoy together. May gratitude flow between generations, and may voices continue to rise in praise of my righteousness.
With all my love,
Your Father
Psalms 145:4–7
WEB4One generation will commend your works to another, and will declare your mighty acts.
5I will meditate on the glorious majesty of your honor, on your wondrous works.
6Men will speak of the might of your awesome acts. I will declare your greatness.
7They will utter the memory of your great goodness, and will sing of your righteousness.
A short reflection
The psalmist speaks of generations recounting God's mighty works and abundant goodness, remembering his majesty and singing of his righteousness.
