Today is Grandparent's Day here at Bible Baptist Church. Grandparents are a special gift from God. Growing up in Ohio, I was very close to both sets of my grandparents. My brother and I spent much time with them. I still have one grandfather who is 96 and still living. They had a profound impact on my life and I miss them so much. Here is something I read that you will find humorous:
You Know You're a Grandparent When....
You're the life of the party, even if it lasts until 8:00 pm.
You're very good at opening child proof caps with a hammer.
You're usually interested in going home before you get to where you're going.
You're smiling all the time because you can't hear a word that they're saying.
You're very good at telling stories over, and over, and over, and over again.
You're aware that other people's grandkids are not as bright as yours are.
You're positive you did the housework correctly before your mate retired.
You're wrinkled, saggy and lumpy...and that's just your left leg.
You're anti-everything...anti-fat, anti-smoke, anti-noise, anti-inflammatory.
You're sure they're making adults much younger these days.
You're in the initial stage of your golden years - SS, CD, IRA, AARP.
You're wondering - if you're only as old as you feel, how could you be 145??
Tuesday evening we kick off our "1 of 100 Soulwinning Campaign." Will you be part of this time of reaching people for Christ? It is not too late to get involved. Daniel 12:3 says, "...And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever." I look forward to seeing you here Tuesday night.
