Are you a grandparent?

 

Naomi being a substitute Grandparent.

There are approximately 30 million grandparents in the U.S. Each one is a potential influence in the lives of their grandchildren. Most Christians would agree, but so little is being done to challenge and equip them.

 

Navigating an unknown future.

In today’s rapidly changing world, it can be daunting to navigate an unknown future. However, I find immense comfort in the wisdom of these verses. “Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.”Proverbs 3:3-6  English Standard Version (ESV)

 

When the time is right…

Over the past few years, one of my guiding principles has been: “When the time is right, I the Lord will make it happen.” – Isaiah 60:22. This verse has become a source of strength, reinforcing the belief that timing is not ours to control.

 

Seeds of faith and hope.

Before you leave today, I encourage you to take a moment and reflect on your own. What seeds of faith and hope are you planting for those who will follow? Legacy Coalition is here to encourage churches to minister to grandparents as they encourage and influence their grandchildren. Our desire is for grandparents to look beyond the pleasures of the retirement culture and invest in the lives of their grandchildren. 

 

 “The LORD bless you and keep you; the LORD make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace.” ’ Numbers 6:24-26 NIV Let’s do the same!

 

Prayer for our children

As we move through life, let’s not forget the profound impact our prayers and intentions can have—not just for ourselves but for the generations to come. Our children and grandchildren hold the potential to change the world for eternity, just as those before us prayed for our paths. It starts with pray and worship!
