The Generation To Come

Psalms 102:18 KJV
This shall be written for the generation to come: and the people which shall be created shall praise the LORD.
There are, throughout the Word of God, passages similar to this one that reminds us that both the writers of the various portions of the Word of God and God Himself knew that what was being written was written for generations to come as well as to those who were the very first readers of these Words.

This verse, and ones like it, give me reassurance that the Book is
As fit for more
As appropriate for me
As application to me

As it was for the people who lived in the days when these words were originally penned.

And I live in amazement to think that some 3000 years ago, this writer, under the divine inspiration of God; saw into the future and said in effect, "This shall be written for [Marvin McKenzie] and [Marvin McKenzie] shall praise the Lord.”
Thank God for His omniscience, and care to reach into the future generations, of which we are a part, and make the Word come alive for us.
