On and On

Psalm 103: 17 “But from everlasting to everlasting the Lord’s love is with those who fear him, and his righteousness with their children’s children…”

We just cannot get away from His great love, can we?  It’s everywhere we turn!  All we have to do is recognize the love of this awesome Father we have and trust Him.  Sounds pretty easy, doesn’t it?

Look at the promise in this verse. 

This love that the Father gives us – this righteousness that is ours when our sins have been forgiven – it affects generations after us. 

Remember yesterday we talked of how we are all like grass and when we die, we are remembered no more?  The legacy we can leave our children, the mark we can make on them and the children after them is one of the knowledge we ingrain in them, of the love of the Father.

We can leave our kids riches, if we’re lucky enough to have them.  And who knows what will become of them when we’re gone.  But when we sow into our children the love of God, we are starting a waterfall that will gush forth, flow over, and fall down on those who come after us, generation after generation.

God’s love has no limits…remember?  Even death cannot stop it.
