A Grandmother's Love...

Happy Wednesday! I pray that your day is off to a great start. I want to remind you there is nothing like a grandmother’s love. She soothes your doubts; calms your fears and wipes your tears away. She believes that you can do anything, even when you don’t believe. She is one of your greatest cheerleaders. Your heart is safe with her. Some of our fondest childhood memories occurred at our grandmother’s home. There was safety with her; love with her; peace with her; trust with her and understanding with her.

If your grandmother is still living, love on her and take care of her. If your grandmother is no longer with you, hold close to your heart the impact she made upon your life. Know that she is smiling from heaven and she is so proud of you. My grandmother passed when I was only eight years old, I would love to hear her sing those hymns again; to smell her oatmeal cooking in the winter or smell her baking several desserts for the holidays; to sit by her in church with those peppermints or butterscotch candies and to know that she would stand up for me, love me and affirm me. 

They said it’s nothing like a mother’s love, but there is nothing like the love of a grandmother! A grandmother’s love is a rare kind of love that only occurs once in this lifetime. I pray that you would appreciate the wisdom she gives you as she tells her story. Our grandmother’s stories showed us what trusting in God looks like. Our grandmother’s story is filled with love, peace, pain, triumphs, and victories! Sit with her, appreciate her journey, but most of all appreciate the impact she has/had on your life! Remember, there is nothing like the love of a grandmother’s love! Until Friday.....Lady T
