I am convinced that nobody on earth could ever love me as much as my Grandma. I am not sure if all Grandma's feel this way about their grandchildren, but my Grandma really really loves me. She actually believes that I am an angel on earth!
I am not sure if I blogged about this but I had a special conversation with my Grandma last year on her 80th birthday. A conversation that I never want to forget. During a difficult time in my life, she reminded me that I have taught others love. That I have loved others so well, that they now know how to love better because of me. It was such a special gift my Grandma shared with me on her birthday- to see me through her eyes, and feel like I had this unique gift.
This week as my Grandma approaches 81 years of age I had lunch with her in town. We laughed, she told me it was okay to cry. I did. She told the waitress that she liked to acknowledge great service and that she had delivered exceptional service and that we appreciated it. The waitress said it was rare to receive a compliment and that she appreciated it very much.
We spoke about God, and heaven. And repenting for our sins. She knows that someday we will be together forever. We hoped that the rest of the people we love would also come to find the Lord so that we can be with them forever too.
It is comforting to know such love!
