Have you noticed that judgment of others is in abundance these days, and grace is often hard to find?

Parenting does not end when our children turn 18; it simply shifts. And if we don’t shift with it, we risk damaging the very relationships we long to preserve. If we want to have an impact on our grandchildren and be intentional, we must choose relationship with our adult kids over being right.

Grace-filled holidays – reality or fantasy? May it be a reality for you this holiday season. In fact, may your holiday season result in a grace-multiplied holiday! Now may “the grace of the Lord Jesus be with you all.” (Revelation 22:21)

Bless your grandchildren by pointing out their gifts and talents and letting them hear you thank God for the many good things you and they have to be thankful for.

Oh, how we desire to see our grandkids grow into strong, healthy, wise, loving men and women, with good character, seeking God first, becoming the persons God has created them to be, doing the good works God has prepared for them. We want to be good stewards of the lives entrusted to us.

A grandparent’s role is not defined simply by age, but by the intentional way they nurture belonging, protect traditions, and encourage the next generation to walk in faith and hope.

“Set your mind on things that are above, not on the things that are on earth.” – Colossians 3:2

Go and not only be a blessing but give a blessing to your grandchildren! And you know what- consider giving one to your grown children as well. Maybe those empty seats will be full again!
