Grandad & Heaven
Life is full of significant moments. This one I am going to share with you was very significant. I wrote the following email to my mother today as I recounted that moment many years ago:
Hi Mum
At our Connect Group the other night, which we lead – about 20 adults from our church meet every fortnight – a member of our group shared how they led their grandad and grandmum to the Lord.
That reminded me of the following event which I am compelled to tell you, as I don’t know if I have ever shared it with you before.
Your dad to me was a poor example of what a grandad should be. A birthday card and a couple of bucks each year with the painful experience of having to ring and say thank you every year – as a kid – didn’t give me a lot of respect for him as a man. I was actually more and more offended as the years went by.
