Scripture and Grandma

When I was talking on the phone to my Grandma the other day she totally caught me off guard when she said, "I am going to try to memorize your verses with you.  It may take me a little longer but I'm gonna do it!"  I got so emotional after she told me that.  (I know, surprise, surprise - still trying to reign my emotions in a bit).  But it was just a special moment. I'm pretty blessed to have a scripture-learnin' Grandma.  Plus, it's just a cool thing to learn the same verses together.

I can only pray that my desire for learning God's word will follow me into my seventies and beyond.

Isn't she a cute Grandma!

So Grandma, we have a hard one this week, but I get excited just reading this verse so putting it to memory will be worth it! 

But the counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you.  Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you.  I do not give to you as the world gives.  Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
John 14:26-27
