What a wonderful blessing it is to have family! I am so thankful to the Lord for the family He has given me and for the opportunities to spend precious time with them.
I had the wonderful opportunity to travel and visit two of my sons and their families. Joel lives in Virginia, and Jeff lives in Maryland. What a joy it was to spend time with them and to see several of my grandchildren and great-grandchildren!
As I look at my family, I am reminded of how wonderfully God has blessed me. We are a diverse family, with different personalities, interests, talents, and experiences, but each one is special and precious to me.
As the years go by, I realize more and more that the greatest blessings in life are not material possessions, but the people God has placed in our lives. Every visit, every hug, every conversation, and every memory is something to treasure.
I thank the Lord for my children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. My prayer is that each one will know Jesus Christ as their personal Savior and experience His love and guidance throughout their lives.
Psalm 127:3 (KJV)
“Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.”
To God be the glory for the wonderful gift of family! May we never take for granted the precious people God has given us. Every day is another opportunity to love them, pray for them, and thank the Lord for them.
