Grandparent advice

Having announced the birth of our first grandchild, I received many well wishes and advice from all of you. Thank you for the kind words.

One really interesting thought was sent in my by friend Di. She suggests that we can learn a great deal about God's love for us by having a grandchild.  For example...

1. We think about her all the time, as God thinks of us all the time.

2. Even though we know that she is not always thinking about us, we think about her and love her just the same.

3. We do not measure our love for her according to her attention given to us. We just love her all the time.

4. When we do hear from her, we are absolutely thrilled.

A small picture of God's love for us. It is always there, whether we see it and acknowledge it, and return it or not.

It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
