On Thursday I spoke to 650 students at a public high school in Tennessee that was having racial tensions. I stood in a gymnasium with a microphone and spoke from the heart. I got great questions from the students, thunderous applause at times, and praise from the principal and superintendent. One thing I did was apologize for the mess my generation made for them as I encouraged them to aim higher. I also stressed the importance of the Golden Rule, treat others how you would like to be treated. I hope I get more opportunities to address high school students. On Monday evening, I will speak at my Alma mater, Roanoke College, for the first time in more than a decade. I am excited because I see the young people as our only hope.

This is so beautiful and powerfully encouraging. We are NEVER too old to be God’s children.
“Consider how much love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God. Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him. Beloved, now are we children of God, and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be. But we know that when He appears, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is. Everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.” 1 John 3: 1-3 (MEV). #God #elderlycare #Jesus #Christian
Here’s a great word for today and everyday.
“Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good. His love endures forever.
Give thanks to the God of gods. His love endures forever.
Give thanks to the Lord of lords: His love endures forever.
to him who alone does great wonders, His love endures forever.
who by his understanding made the heavens, His love endures forever.
who spread out the earth upon the waters, His love endures forever.
who made the great lights— His love endures forever.
the sun to govern the day, His love endures forever.
the moon and stars to govern the night;
His love endures forever.”
Psalm 136: 1-9 (NIV). “
