Be The One

The Bible tells us that Josiah became king at age 12. He disobeyed God just as His father did. This trend of disobedience is repeated through out the Old Testament. Fathers and sons ruling others and not following/doing God's will. I think about today's families, sons doing as their fathers do/did and it makes me sad. It's a shame that this trend has carried on for so long but all is not lost. Josiah became aware of God's Laws and started living accordingly. See it only takes one father/mother to change/correct their living. If you're a parent, understand that how you live may very well be how your children will live. We all fall into the trap of the "flesh", feeling good temporarily but not understanding the repercussion of avoiding "spiritual" living. Thank God Josiah had the good sense to honor God's Laws after being made aware of them. Some of us know His word but we keep on "trucking" past it as if it doesn't apply to us, good luck with that. Men/women, young and old, take ownership of your spiritual growth. Your fathers and mothers may have fallen, didn't teach you the ways of God, but you have an opportunity to learn for yourself. Don't miss the chance to bring God into the lives of others as well as your own. (Josiah's sons also disobeyed, not doing God's will. don't let it be you who fails God). TeamItOnlyTakesOne.
