God Has No Grandchildren

Wisdom makes an invitation to us that we can either accept or reject. Even if a father or mother are diligent in instructing their children to embrace wisdom and to treasure it deep within, each generation must decide for themselves. As Luis Palau observed, God has no grandchildren. May we be the generation that turns our eyes and hearts to applying understanding. For in so doing we will have victory in this life and the life to come.

Proverbs 2:1-8

          My son, if you accept my words and store up my commands within
          you, turning your ear to wisdom and applying your heart to
          understanding, and if you call out for insight and cry aloud for
          understanding, and if you look for it as for silver and search for it as
          for hidden treasure, then you will understand the fear of the LORD
          and find the knowledge of God. For the LORD gives wisdom, and
          from his mouth come knowledge and understanding. He holds victory
          in store for the upright, he is a shield to those whose walk is
          blameless, for he guards the course of the just and protects the way
          of his faithful ones.
