Retracing Our Steps To Find Our Lost Generation

in this world of fatal attractions and demonic temptations we must retrace our steps to find our lost generation in the grand scheme of life God gave us each a purpose or task and we need to find that special gift in order to do what He has asked we're all precious to Him and with each of us God broke the mold and when He loses any one of us He desires we'd be returned back to the fold yet the generation of today has become negative in mind the media portrays them as being thugs of all kinds nothing about them is positive for they seem to be all about self and it's up to as adults to help restore their spiritual health where would we be ourselves if our own parents did not have our backs we're in part responsible for the next generation falling off the right track we were too busy climbing up the corporate ladder to keep them in place we turned our sheep a loose and did not stay on their case we stopped reading with them, praying for them and left them on their own and now we have a bunch of rebellious kids who think that they are grown a lost generation out in the wicked wilderness caught up in the world of violence and willfulness it's up to us as parents to take on the responsibility and go out into the wilderness and bring them back to safety we must retrace our step and remember the last time we thought of ourselves as a flock, a community of one mind we started thinking as individuals and went out to do our own thing and in the midst of our selfishness our children did the suffering we were too busy to teach them to take responsibility we were too busy to teach them to respect authority we must retrace our steps and go back to that time when we were the most important thing on our own parent's minds now is the time to get down on our hands and knees and get right with God and hope that we can instill in our children a righteousness of heart so pray for the youth, pray for yourself and pray for everyone's salvation pray that Jesus the Great Shepard can retrace our steps and save our lost generation

This is excellent, flows very well, and has an awesome message. The question is "How can one learn without a teacher?" That's certainly a bad situation to be in and it is a perquisite to taking the wrong track. Children has been abandoned in this great country of our. Unless and until a positive side has been turn they will take the wrong path. Great job! ~Joseph
