How good is the Lord? That we get to tell the coming generations of His goodness and faithfulness.
We will tell these stories to our kids that they would see Jesus as their only hope. The one who they can take refuge in. That they would not forget the goodness of God.
How sweet is it that we get to tell the generations to come “so that they should set their hope in God and not forget the works of God, but keep his commandments” That the stories of faith in our lives not only teach us about the character and faithfulness of Christ but also the generations to come. The stories of the Lord are carried thought the whole world.
What an encouragement to the soul to know that our stories are not about us and how we benefit but about Jesus! The author and perfecter of our faith the one who is faithful to the end. What an honor and gift it is to follow Jesus my father and get to see His heart for me His daughter that His faithfulness is evident in my life and in those around me. That the faithful testimony of Jesus is true and we get to carry it to the generations.
We have all walked through highs and lows with the Lord. Where we have felt His nearness and closeness and other times it’s like the Lord has forsaken you. It’s in those moments we can look back and see where the Lord has been faithful. He has not failed you before and He will not now. It may not look like you want it to but that does not mean he is failing you; He has and always will be faithful.
What an honor that we carry the torch of faith. There have been many who have come before us, and many who will come after us. Their stories of faith have spurred us on, how are you stewarding the stories that show the faithfulness of God to one day share with the next generations?
Until next time friends,
Jael Vogt
