Grandma


Today was a very sad day for our family. My precious Grandma left us for heaven this afternoon. My heart aches for her, but I am also proud of the life she lived and for the reward that is now hers. I thank God for her faithfulness because I know that my knowledge of Jesus started with her teaching my dad.

Grandma loved the song "My God and I." The last verse of that song is now hers.

"My God and I
will go for aye together.

We'll walk and talk
like good friends should and do.

This earth will pass, and with it common trifles,
But God and I will go unendingly.

This earth will pass, and with it common trifles,
But God and I will go unendingly."
