On this Thursday I would have to go straight to my Grandson on the way! I am so thankful that I get to be a Grandma! I look forward to reading and telling this little one about Jesus.
Psalm 127:3-5
Sons are a heritage from the LORD,
children a reward from him.
Like arrows in the hands of a warrior
are sons born in one's youth.
Blessed is the man
whose quiver is full of them.
They will not be put to shame
when they contend with their enemies in the gate.
The best gift we can give our children is not in anything that we buy them but in the gift of Jesus. Nothing else matters without him. I sit here thankful that I came from parents that raised me to know and fear (respect) the Lord. I am thankful that I have two daughters that have gone on to accept Christ and want to serve him. I look forward to the day that Jeffrey does and then goes on to follow in baptism.
A heritage of Lord is the best gift of all. I hope that someday my children look back and say that the best gift they every received was that of knowing Christ as their savior. I also hope they look back and see that they had a Mom who loved him with all her heart as I strive to be that Proverbs 31 woman.
Proverbs 22:6 Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it.
