| My beautiful grandmother, Mable Glaze |
I have no greater joy than this, to hear that my children walk in truth." 3 John 1:4
It brought back wonderful memories of my Grandma Glaze. She was a colorful and fiesty lady and I loved her spunk. When she passed, I inherited her Bible. While thumbing through it I came across this same verse in 3rd John. It was underlined and "My favorite verse" was written in the margin.
My Grandma gave birth to 14 children. When she passed, she had 52 grandchildren. I've lost track of how many great-grandchildren, but it's very near 100 and now we're into the great-great generation - maybe about 35 so far...and almost all of them are believers!
Never underestimate the power of a praying mother and grandmother!
The greatest thing you can do for your family for generations to come is to pray them into the Kingdom of God and never, ever give up.
