Generational Inheritance
Proverbs 13:22
“A good man leaves an inheritance to his children’s children, but the sinner’s wealth is laid up for the righteous.”
As we have learned recently, it is important that we have vision for tomorrow and not just the moment. Our decisions today will have an impact on generations to come. This brings a weight and responsibility and makes us consider not only ourselves but our children and their children.
Many people have squandered this responsibility and end up leaving nothing for the next generation. Or what they do build up for themselves is divided among the righteous after they die. Start your day by considering what you are storing up for the next generation. Don’t overthink it, but begin to treat your actions as though they are impacting the future, because they are! Explain to your children what you are doing and teach them, so that they in turn will learn the tools necessary to impact the generations coming after them. Let’s build an inheritance together!
