YOUNG AND OLD
Today's reading: Psalm 87-89

"I will sing of the tender mercies of the Lord forever! Young and old will hear of your faithfulness." Psalm 89:1 NLT

It's easy for me to make a fool of myself talking about Jesus to kids.

I can use crazy voices, make wild hand gestures, share stories about myself that leave them giggling or with those deep-down belly laughs.

I can explain Bible accounts to them in ways they understand, and at times leave them wanting to know more.

I can sing loud. I can encourage. I can cheer. I can direct most conversations with kids around to Jesus.

But with grown-ups...I tend to clam up.

I tend to think they don't have the time, the interest or the desire to get what I get about God in the simple terms with which I get Him.

Shame on me!

Starting today, young and old will hear about Your faithfulness, God, from me.
