My Future
Good evening family. I've been a little down today. Not enough sleep I guess but early to bed tonight. Praying for the Martin family, still can't believe the verdict. Yesterday I talked to my grandchildren about attitude, forgiveness, respect and love. I reminded them that sometimes you have to walk away and that every battle is not yours to fight. I also talked to them about civil rights. I plan on doing this as often as I can. It seems the children of today are to far removed from this movement. They don't understand that it is because of our ancestors that they have rights. I reminded them that it wasn't to long ago that we were segregated. They're taught history in school but I think we need to bring it "home", cover all the bases. We become stronger by increasing and sharing our knowledge. I also want to remind parents and guardians that we are responsible for setting the right examples. We sometimes open the door to "sin", letting it walk right into our homes and get comfortable. When my children were young I didn't live an upstanding life. I worked, attended church (not consistently), I made sure they were fed, educated and clothed. What I didn't do was block those generational curses that followed me into adulthood. Tonight I pray for you as I pray for myself asking God to watch over us as walk through this life, asking Him to help us raise this new generation. Lord, I ask that You touch the hearts of every and anyone who is "head of household". Help us make the right decision based on Your word, leaving those bad habits behind. Without Your word we are lost. Allow us to move forward and leave past failures behind. As the song goes "give me a clean heart". Lord I ask that You continue showing me where "my" change is needed. I focus on You Lord because I can't change anyone else. I pray that my change be one that influences someone else to move in Your direction. Lord, thank You for my past but more so, thank You for my future. TeamMyFutureGeneration. Bblessedloveyou. Matthew 5 vs 21-26, Matthew 5 38-47,
