There’s been this penny laying on my driveway for probably 4 months and I just left it. Pennies say “In God we trust.” I know how the Lord likes to use pennies with me and today it happened. I saw the penny and immediately I heard trust me, love your grandkids like I love you. I just stood there and stared at it.
This morning when I got up I wanted so bad to hear something from the Lord. I don’t know if I wasn’t listening or if I was just tired. But I didn’t hear anything.
It took me being up for 3 hours to hear something. Today I get my grandkids and what an opportunity I have. To be the Pepaw that my grandkids will honor and cherish long after I’m gone. I heard Holy Spirit say “that is who you are, and your grandkids will never have anything to complain about you” and it just broke me. I felt right then that what I needed to change went right into my heart. I feel like during this last week I had a heart shift about my grandkids, and it is already beginning to manifest.
No more selfishness, no more jealousy. It has been replaced by the Love of God.
I actually was reading in John 17 this morning and I guess he did speak I just wasn’t listening.
John 17:22-23 (ESV) 22 The glory that you have given me I have given to them, that they may be one even as we are one, 23 I in them and you in me, that they may become perfectly one, so that the world may know that you sent me and loved them even as you loved me.
That is awesome brother! I pray you have a amazing time with your grandkids and that the lord works threw you to imprint things on there little hearts and minds that they will remember and Cary with them the rest of there lives.

to me this means that God may not always answer right away and he may communicate with you differently than before
