My second grandchild was born this week! My son's second daughter, Micah Anne Beliles, was born in Guam. The mother, Carrie, and the older sister, Faith, are doing well, and grandmother, Nancy, is departing Monday for Guam for three weeks. Meanwhile, I will be guarding the home front and taking care of our two dogs, Maggie and Beau.
Sometimes family matters like these may appear relatively unimportant in the big picture of transforming nations, but really all lasting change in culture is done multi-generationally through institutions such as the family and church.
I have been reading Deuteronomy lately and have been especially attune to the frequency of references to parents having duties to teach and mentor their children and even their grandchildren.
Thank you Lord for entrusting me with three wonderful children and two grandchildren so far.
