If you grew up in a faith-practicing home, you no doubt remember all those years of “saying grace” as a family. I was talking about this with one of my brothers yesterday and we recalled the time when our parents asked our cousin to say grace. He bowed his head and with great sincerity said, “Grace. Amen.” Quite literally, he was right.
It blows me away how God speaks grace into our lives through the faith of those around us, particularly the older saints around us. I recount the faith of my parents and grandmother in today’s recording, Saying Grace. When I look back over my life I am deeply aware of their influence in my walk with Jesus. I have so many fond memories of them speaking into my life the mighty grace of God, through His word and by their faith in action.
I pray God gives you an opportunity today to communicate gratitude to someone who has shared the life of Christ with you—perhaps a father, mother, or grandmother. There’s nothing like a word of encouragement to demonstrate our love. God speed, beloved!
