We just finished a week of VBS. 31 children accepted Jesus as their Saviour. 3 of those children were my grandchildren! One 9 year old grandson, a 6 year old grandson, and a 12 year old granddaughter. One of my other grandsons - also 9, accepted the Lord in April. My grandchildren have been a huge burden on my heart (as are my own children). God has truly answered some of my prayers this past week. I will continue to trust him for the other 13 year old granddaughter (who I never see because she doesn't live here and I know never attends church) and the other 5 year old grandson who does live here and does attend church (and who even now, is asking a lot of questions about God), and for my own children. They accepted the Lord back when they were very young but as adults, two of them are never in church or living for the Lord, and the other one is in church but not as faithful as she should be. I must always remind myself that with God, nothing is impossible and He definitely showed that to me this past week in my grandchildren. They will need continued prayer though as they have parents (my children) who are not living for the Lord. I am the one who takes them to church and will continue to do so as long as the Lord allows. I am truly blessed though, to know that 4 of my grandchildren are now saved and on their way to Heaven! ;D
