Think of the contrast between Enoch and Adam. Adam, though perfect, sinned against Jehovah and left his descendants a legacy of rebellion and misery. Enoch, though imperfect, walked with God and left his descendants a legacy of faith. Adam died when Enoch was 308 years old. Did Adam's family mourn that profoundly selfish forefather? We do not know. In any case, Enoch "kept walking with the true God." - GENESIS 5:24.
If you are providing for your family, consider what you can learn from the faith of Enoch. Vital though it is to provide for your family physically, there is no need more important than the spiritual kind. (1 Timothy 5:8) You fill that need not only by what you say but what you do. If you choose to walk with God as Enoch did, letting God's inspired standards guide you in life, you too will give your family a legacy-a priceless example for them to imitate.
