The children. ( Matthew 19 v 13 -15 )

 I feel very sad for the children of this generation, many of them in this country are better off than the children of my generation.Yes they have so much more materially that may be a good thing , but we are not just material beings ,and our needs go deeper,that the food on our plate.Because God has placed eternity in our being , we are born with it,some describe it as a vacuum, that God shaped hole,a longing for God. But because of mankind's fallen nature, we go astray from birth,we do not seek after God Romans 3 v 11.But we still have that longing, even as children,but alas that longing can so easily lead us into that which is destructive. A friend of mine mentioned how some 12 year olds use their smart phones,to view pornographic images,who knows where that will lead to, and what it will lead to.Children are  also being continually fed on the media with things that are contrary to their wellbeing, and contrary to God's moral law, and society is even promoting them.It is a dark picture ,with children never attending a church service , never attending Sunday school. What chance do they have?,very little, sad to say, modern society is .putting so many obstacles in their way.It  makes me very sad,so what is the answer?,most certainly prayer,and guidance from the Holy Spirit,that we will be guided in ways, as to how we reach this present generation of young people.
