Happy May! I wanted to pop in and share a few pictures from my month of April which seemed to fly by quickly. As I am trying to catch up with my blogging friends today I realized it had been a month since I last posted. My mercy! But, I am so busy doing this thing we call life here on earth and enjoying every moment that I can. With my immediate family of 14 there is never a dull moment y'all! We had three family birthdays in April. My SIL David, granddaughter Adalynn and oldest granddaughter Raygen. Our favorite grandson Conner (only grandson) carried his girl to the prom. We had to snap at least one picture with Mom and Nana! Two of my elementary school friends and I get together at least once every 4-5 weeks so we went to breakfast and then to Cummer Museum of Art & Gardens. We always have so much fun.

Well, I just like LOVE bragging on my grandbabies! Gotta brag on the oldest grandgirl a little bit today.
Let me start by sharing that my oldest daughter and her family spent the week in New Orleans with our church on a mission trip. We had the opportunity to hear amazing testimonies last night at church from our team that went.
Nothing melted my heart any more than to hear that our 10 year old grandgirl Raygen participated with helping to lead Bible studies all through the week with the children, took a very active part in leading and led two little girls to come to know Christ as their Savior.
The opportunity came when she was asked about her bracelet that she was wearing. The "Salvation" bracelet.
She explained in detail what each bead meant and represented and then led them in prayer.
WHEW....my heart is still melting!

Hoping to share with you soon about another bracelet that the Lord used to help me be an encourager to another sister in Christ. Amazing how our Lord will use a piece of jewelry!!!!

This is such a great story!! Thanks for sharing! God gives us opportunities all the time to share our faith with others and many times, we let those opportunities slip by. I know you are so proud your granddaughter followed God's lead! What a wonderful blessing she was to those she worked with!
