One of the great joys of grandparents
Is story telling .
Whether a bed time story ,
Or making up a story ,
Or retelling family lore
To a new generation of listeners .
Story telling is always about
More than the story itself .
It is about intimacy ,
About sitting close or holding
on to the new child
And passing on a legacy .
There is no legacy more special
Than our legacy of faith .
We need to give our grandchildren
More than rote prayers and Bible stories .
We need to give them our stories .
We need to show them why faith is alive in us
And how God has been good to us and our family .
I Love You All
