One thing I have learned from being a granma is that you get a different view of your children.

 They are now parents and though you could tell them a thousand better ways of doing this and that you surprisingly remain SILENT.'

 Usually it is due to a MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS QUIP perhaps, or, maybe a LET THEM LEARN IT ON THEIR OWN.

 Whatever the style  of grandparenting we have adopted I know for sure nothing is written in stone in life except for this Granma's unconditional love.

 Having said that I must say,WAIT TILL YOU HAVE CHILDREN OF YOUR OWN has resonated in my ears from my very first baby's cry to this day!!!!

 I love being Granma!!!!!

 

BLOOD IS NOT THICKER THAN LIVING WATER

FAMILY IS NOT NECESSARILY BLOODLINES BUT HERE IS A DIFFERENT TYPE
 When I had my first baby people would say "Oh he looks like his dad or your granma or maybe even a distant relative whom I may have never met.
 We try very hard to make sure we fit that new baby somewhere in the inheritance line of genetics and family ties.
 Yet Jesus shows us a different way, a new ay to look at a family unit and it is without any human effort or blood.
 "But  as many as received Him, to them He gave power to become children of God, EVEN to them that believe on His name.

 Which were born,not of blood,nor of the will of the flesh,nor of the will of man, BUT OF GOD!!!!!!  John 1:12,13

 So we see that we do not look at a person in God's family by appearance,character or genetic dispositions.
 And God does not either.
We are ALL made in His image and likeness(Genesis 1:27)
 God instead is looking for those who have received His Son, whom He sent to us in His great mercy and love, to be His children,now and forever.
 He gave us a deposit,if we understand that,which is the Holy Spirit,and, this is the bond which unites us all in His name.
 Every single person who has accepted Jesus as God's Son and believes God has raised Him from the dead,is God's child and receives the Holy Spirit to guide he or she in all things of God.
 If you an adopted child, foster, or had parents who just did not care for you properly,abused you or seemed distant, be comforted and assured that our heavenly Father loves you NO MATTER WHAT.
He has prepared a place for you in His kingdom and desires to bless you with all you need on this earth.

MY SISTER IN CHRIST LISA

She is a sunshine ray
on a gloomy day..
yet she does not know how much she means to us!!!!!!

She will give her heart away
her love is as sure as the night after day
but for her to receive love is for us to pray that she knows it
that we love her

and He loves her

We do love you girl
though our distance is far
our prayers are near
though our lives are apart
we are one in Him
and all you have to do is rest in Him...................

YOU HAVE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SMILE EVER
