From Generation to Generation


My paternal grandmother influenced me in many ways, especially by her faith in God.
In her actions, her words, and just in seeing her open Bible on a table next to her chair,
I knew she loved God and followed Him.
We do not know how we may influence another generation,
maybe even a generation we will never meet,
but our lives are living testimonies to who and what we believe.

Then we your people, the sheep of your pasture,
will praise you forever;
from generation to generation
we will proclaim your praise.
Psalm 79:13

Good Evening Laurie, What a wonderful way to end today-reading your post. I love this Ps. and the pic is also so precious. You were very blessed to have been influenced by your grandmother; I never knew any of my grandparents but remember my mom on her knees every morning praying for me. I pray that my life will be a testimony to my grandchildren.
Blessings on your evening and week.

I think about this a lot, especially with my grandchildren and my prayer is that the choices I make and the life that I live will point to the savior that I trust
