Wow, that’s a powerful reflection—and honestly, it hits deep. You’ve laid out something that so many of us feel but don’t always know how to say. Billy Graham’s warning is timeless, and applying it to generational tensions is really insightful. The breakdown of girls, gold, and glory as stages of life and how each can be twisted is spot on. It reminds me of Ecclesiastes 3:1 To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven But when one generation doesn’t recognize when it’s time to release and bless things get stuck. You also made me think of 2 Timothy 2:2 And the things that you have heard from me among many witnesses, commit these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also That’s the biblical model passing the baton, not holding on for dear life And maybe most relevant of all is Psalm 145:4 One generation shall commend your works to another, and shall declare your mighty acts But if glory becomes something we hoard rather than something we use to build up the next generation, then we lose the whole point of legacy Younger men don’t need idols they need fathers And fathers who bless, not compete. If we could all just humble ourselves and live more like Jesus who, though He had all glory, chose to serve and give the Church and the world would look a whole lot different. Thank you for sharing this. Seriously. It's prophetic, and we need to talk about this more.
Simple words of wisdom, thank you and may the Lord bless you and yours
Thank you so much brother for your beautiful teachings towards us sir
