From the Pastor's Desk: The influence of generations
can be clearly seen in the life of Enoch.
God forever defined this man’s life as that of a man who walked with God. We see the influence of Enoch upon the lives
of those who followed him all the way to Noah and beyond. There are times when we are under the false
impression that what we do doesn’t really matter. But we couldn’t be further from the
truth. As stated last week, our actions,
good or bad, influence the following generations. If we reverence the Lord and teach our
children and grandchildren what it is to respect God and His Word, then we can
impact not only them, but all who they will touch by their life example and
influence. God had something to say
about Enoch and it is forever etched in His Word. Enoch walked with God. What about you and me? What can be said of our life and habits? Can others see the high regard we have for
the Lord and His Word? Do our lives show
our love for Him as well as our loyalty to Him?
Enoch’s did, and so can ours.
Verse
of the Week:
By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see
death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his
translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.
Hebrews 11:5
