KUW Insights Podcast
I love insights that are based on the knowledge, understanding and wisdom sourced from the Word of God.These three parameters are what insights are all about as the Lord advocates that by wisdom a house is built; and through understanding it is established; through knowledge its rooms are filled with rare and beautiful treasures.We need to create time in our busy schedule to slow down and ponder over the finer things of life. Our thinking should be facilitated by the Holy Spirit who will cause our thought patterns to align with that of the Almighty God

Welcome to the KUW Insight Podcast. Today’s insight is titled The Children Are Our Future written by Ade Ojomo and read by Dr Zoe Ekundare
The late Whitney Houston sang a chart topping song called “The Children are our Future. The first stanza of the song goes as follow:
I believe the children are our are future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be
Everybody searching for a hero
People need someone to look up to
I never found anyone to fulfil my needs
A lonely place to be
So I learned to depend on me
As I reflected on the song, I began to think about my children and the younger generation and the challengers they currently face in a society where things move at the speed of thought!
As parents, leaders, mentors; what legacies are we prepared to leave behind for them that will have a lasting impact on their lives?
What foundations are in place that will equip them to face the future with pride and a sense of purpose?
Are we ensuring that the role models that they looked up to are people that have walked the talk and not talk the walk
In Titus 2 v 6 – 8 we see an example of the kind of encouragement that our children needs as we prepare them for the future
Similarly, encourage the young men to be self-controlled. In everything set them an example by doing what is good. In your teaching show integrity, seriousness and soundness of speech that cannot be condemned, so that those who oppose you may be ashamed because they have nothing bad to say about us.
If we want the younger generation to act in godly ways, we have to be sure that we set godly examples in terms of our are words, thoughts and deeds.
These parameters will hence set the tone for ensuring that our children are our future!
Goodbye and until the next KUW Insight,
