Being a mom of three kids and now a grandmother, I can see more than ever how much God has entrusted me to live a life of faith not only for my children but now my grandchildren. I have special memories of my being with my grandma.
Don’t you?
I want them to see me trusting and loving God with all my heart and soul. I want to leave a legacy of memories at my home praying and sitting together for meals. I want to linger and listen to them just like the Father does with His children.
I want to reflect the image of God so that they will want know Him like I do. I would also love to leave my well loved Bible behind one day. I know it sounds weird to think about something like that but I do because I wasn’t raised with a legacy of faith. There wasn’t a great emphasis on church, faith, or God in my home life. It is amazing the plan God had and even though we all don’t grow up learning about God. He doesn’t stop teaching for us. So starting with me it can change!
We can change the trajectory of our families by being the first. My husband was the first college graduate in both our immediate families and now we can leave a unwavering faith in an amazing God who loves us.
Have you thought about leaving a legacy too? Or something special for your family?
I would love to hear your stories or comments below!
Bless you friends!
