"Walk about Zion, and go round about her: tell the towers thereof.
Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces; that ye may tell it to the generation following.
For this God is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide even unto death."
Psalms 48:12-14
I like this reminder that God is God forever. God isn't in a comic book universe where even the greatest powers get taken down. He's more lasting than that... the very idea of God is an eternal idea, something that will always be there and that we can always rely on, even after death. Like these verses tell us, we can (and should) teach our our children of him because the covenants that we make with him last beyond the grave, and are things that God will remember when dealing with our children, just as he remembered the covenants of our fathers when dealing with us.
Today, let's take note of God's works and let's pass the information on. Unlike many of the things that we currently worry about, the cause and the works of God will still be here in 5, 10, or 15 years, and much longer. Let's tell others the reason that we hope, and of the lives and the selves that God has helped us to build.
