My Grandson Is One

Big Wrig is one year old and this is him in a hub. Yes he is the center of our world right now and we are eating it up. I am not sure about the orange color in the background but he looks good. Wouldn't you agree?

I prayed for him today. I asked God to help him to be an influence for the Kingdom. I asked God to lead him to take risks in life. I asked God to make him bold but loving, relational but relevant, happy but realistic. I want him to be himself and to be the best self God can make him to be.

I wish I could spare him some of the pitfalls of my life. I know he will have to deal with his own. Mine have helped me be more the man and his will as well.

He has great parents and a great sister. He is going to receive into his life others who will guide him God's way and others who will tempt him to take the cheap, easy way. Don't go that way Wrigley.

If he plows, that is great. As long as after every row he realizes that God is the provider of all things. If he golfs, that is great. As long as after ever 18 he realizes that God is more interested in the Kingdom than the links. If he sings, that is great. As long as he realizes that when the music is over it is God that created the song. He is the greatest.

Give me the ability to guide him as his granddad or paw paw.

He is one and number ONE in my book today.
