Grandma's Coming

Rob's mom is coming to visit today, driving in from Ohio just to see us. A decade ago, she would not have been able to make this trip - she doubted herself when she drove long distances. Just a couple years ago, she got her R.N. degree, fulfilling a lifelong dream. She's always learning, always growing and always stretching.

God, please help me live each day like my mother-in-law. Fill my heart with a desire to grow and know you more. When I grow weary, help me remember to press on toward the goal, so that others might know you. Thank you for the lovely example you put before me in my mother-in-law. Be with her as she drives today. In Jesus' name, Amen.
