“Let this be written for a future generation, that a people not yet created may praise the Lord."        Ps.102:18

 

In light of this verse, here are a few questions to meditate on:

What are we doing to ensure that after we are dead and buried the Kingdom of God continues to advance?

      What slow-growing apple seeds are we planting that may one day be someone’s orchard?

     Have we made provision for a generation not yet created?

Maybe it's something as simple as asking people questions like these. I wrote them in my journal nine years ago while working in Africa. I'd love to know your thoughts.
