Words of wisdom to pass on ...

What would you like to pass on to the next generation? For me I want my children and those around me, to know of the love of God, freely available to them as something they want for themselves because they've seen the wonder of it in my life ... why wouldn't they want it? And beyond that ... kindness, true kindness. 

In Deuteronomy 11 it says "So commit yourselves wholeheartedly to these words of mine ... teach them to your children. Talk about them when you are at home and when you are on the road, when you are going to bed and when you are getting up. Write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates ... Show love to the Lord you God by walking in his ways and holding tightly to him ... you will be blessed." Even if you don't have children, this can obviously be applied to anyone within your circle of influence ... our lives and homes can be beacons of light to so many who feel like something is missing, who are searching for meaning, purpose and security.

Watch this interview by the CS Lewis Institute with John Lennox on ‘what final words of wisdom would you leave to your children and grandchildren?’
