The Blessing Of Grandbabies - By Kingdom Keys

What would you write on your blog if you just found out today that another grandbaby was on the way?  Well, that’s the top news item of the day for us.  I didn’t talk about it during the news and views program this morning because I didn’t know about it then.  But, I’ll tell you this – this grandpa thing is pretty neat.  I had to wait a lot of years to have this joy in my life.  That doesn’t mean I’m old, but life is really good at this stage.

    I told Nathan many times through the years that I had to wait 39 years to meet one of the most significant persons in my life.  (He was born on my 39th birthday).  I had to wait 57 years to meet another of the most significant persons in my life – my granddaughter Liviya.  But, before my 60th birthday, I will get to meet another.  Sometimes, I tell Nathan about someone from an earlier generation that I knew.  I’ll tell him that he missed out on knowing some great people.  But, Oh how wonderful and how great is our God to allow us the privilege of getting to know some of His great ones that are coming along now. 

    Why not stop a moment to give Him praise and thanks today for your children and grandchildren and great-grandchildren, if you are in that stage of life?
