When I took this picture a week ago, I knew it was a treasure. It was hard to put into words then, but now they seem to come to me. This was when Lil' G met his great granddaddy R. We knew time was fleeting for granddaddy and we wanted our youngest to meet him. We made the 80 minute trek, and now a week later we are so thankful we did. For Granddaddy has now gone on to be with Jesus.As I now look at this picture it sends me into so much deep thought...mainly how God highly values life. We believe that ALL life is precious in his sight- from the cradle right to the grave.
The following verses continue to remind me that no matter our age, God has a plan that he has known before we were ever in existence. May we be challenged to live a life honoring unto our Lord. Thank-you Granddaddy for the legacy of faith you have left behind.I am so thankful to serve a God that knew when we would arrive in this world and when we will depart from it.
"My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be."
Psalm 139:15-16
