7And the Israelites served the LORD throughout the lifetime of Joshua and the leaders who outlived him—those who had seen all the great things the LORD had done for Israel.
8Joshua son of Nun, the servant of the LORD, died at the age of 110. 9They buried him in the land he had been allocated, at Timnath-serah in the hill country of Ephraim, north of Mount Gaash.
10After that generation died, another generation grew up who did not acknowledge the LORD or remember the mighty things he had done for Israel.
Servants of the Lord
Joshua was truly a servant of the Lord as others named in the Bible like Moses and David. There a a few in more recent history like Billy Graham and Charles Spurgeon.
If we are lucky enough to live to a ripe old age will our family and friends recall us being a servant of the Lord? More importantly will our children acknowledge the Lord or remember the things He has done for you?
Blessings
