Generations: Blessing and Honoring

Well, good morning. Once again, it’s good to be back with you this Sunday. I’m particularly thankful for a few things this morning, number one that Mark Perry was so graciously willing to step up to the plate last week and come through in the clutch when I needed him. Amy and Conner are currently at home and doing wonderfully. Thank you for your prayers and support. And secondly, I’m thankful for the choir this morning leading us in one of my all-time favorite praise and worship songs.

That refrain – God of wonders – is going to be our rallying cry this month. One of the wonders of God that I have beheld this week is how a 13-day old can produce dirty diapers as numerous as the sands of the seashore and the stars in the sky. I’m not kidding, I felt like Moses parting the Red Sea getting from our bed to the shower this morning. Let my people go!

But the good news is that he, all by himself, has settled into a predictable routine. In fact, for the last few days, being the tiny tyrant, the benevolent dictator in diapers, he has so graciously allowed his parents to sleep nearly 5 hours at a time. Which goes to show that this kid is a born Presbyterian – even his sleeping, eating, and pooping is in order… though I’m not sure how decent it is.

We will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord, his power and the wonders he has done. If I had to come up with a rallying cry for this church, during this month where we’re considering stewardship and our financial plans for next year, it would be this: We will tell the wondrous deeds of our God to the next generation.
