Your Generation – Part 3

Encouragement for Whatever Time of Life You Are In

In July, I felt the Lord wanted to encourage people with a word of exhortation for wherever they are. He started with my generation, the older folks sixty and older, then the 40 to 50s, then the 30-40s, and finally the younger adult generation of the 20s to 30s. I pray that you will find a nugget of hope and reassurance through the post that you identify more with.

TWENTIES AND THIRTIES

You are establishing your life for your foreseeable future. You are building families and careers. In many cases, it appears that the world is your oyster.

While you are establishing your lives, do not forget to cultivate your relationship with Christ. You’re comfortable with Him now. He has shown you your gifts and you operate in them.

Do not forget the One who made you as you live your lives — it is the private times you have with Christ that will give you direction.

Read Proverbs every day — and become wise. Remain in close fellowship with God. Continue to learn from those older than you. There are many things they can help you with — and you can help them.

Be blessed in your comings and goings. Be fruitful and use your physical energy for eternal matters.
