Ecclesiastes 1:11 "There is no remembrance of men of old..."
Why am I writing all of these things? In my initial post, I tried to explain my hopes and goals for this blog. I can see in my own life how I struggle with being a man, and I realize that I need to learn from better men who have come before me. As I look back upon how men used to be back when nobility, honor, and courage were the measure of a man - I see that we are missing that today. I see that I am missing that today.
And so I seek to remember the men of old.
These men of old can teach us so many things. Young men, we have to learn how to act, think, and be. We need to learn about what good goals and aspirations look like. We have to incorporate strength and justice into plans and motivations. The men of old have shown us the way. Now we need to follow - and by following, we can then create our own way.
But it all begins with remembering the men of old. The Lord said in His Word that the people struggled - the men struggled - because they did not remember how to do things. They did not remember the men of old.
We must remember. We must remember.
