Our role as Godly mothers and grandmothers is to communicate our faith in Jesus and pray diligently for our children. God is waiting for us to ask Him for opportunities of how to be a godly influence for our children. Because we affect our children and grandchildren one way or another, God has given us the responsibility to set a positive example. As we invest in our walk with the Lord, we are spiritually investing in the lives of our grandchildren by modeling a godly example. As spiritual role models we can demonstrate the reality of our faith. By walking with God through the good times, the bad times as well as the sunshine and the storms of life, we show them that God is the source of our strength. Sometimes our children or grandchildren will try to make gods out of us, so we must always keep the Lord Jesus before them as real as He is. We love to give our children and grandchildren gifts, but the greatest and most lasting gift that we can give them is to be their prayer intercessor, affecting and influencing their generation with God's faithfulness. When we see God answering our prayers it is the greatest blessing that will come.
With the pressure on families today, our children need our hugs, reassurance and wisdom more than ever. It is also imperative for us to communicate to our children and grandchildren that we love them and accept them, even though we may not accept their behavior. In today's broken world, Satan’s purpose is to destroy the family. Please let it be included in our prayers that God give them His wisdom and that our teaching and guiding lead them in the ways of the Lord.
What kind of memories will our children and grandchildren have of us? Will they imitate our spiritual life? And will they want our Jesus? I leave you with the scripture, 3 John 1: 4, "I have no greater joy than to hear that my children and grandchildren are walking in the truth".
This is Apostle Connie,
Until the next time.
