The Grands Letter

Dear Grands,

John 14:2-3, “’In My Father’s house are many dwelling places; if it were not so,

I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you. 3 “If I go and prepare

a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am,

there you may be also.’”

In this verse, the LORD shares both why He is going and why He is returning.

It all has a resemblance with the Jewish Marriage system (see the attachment).

He is Coming Again, and it may not be very far off! Live so that you will not

be embarrassed to have Him look upon you.

All our Love,

Dear Grands,

Psalm 86:8-10, “There is no one like You among the gods, O Lord,

Nor are there any works like Yours. 9 All nations whom You have made

shall come and worship before You, O Lord, And they shall glorify Your name.

10 For You are great and do wondrous deeds; You alone are God.”

We need to remember how wondrous and glorious the deeds of

our LORD are! There is no god anywhere like the God we know

and serve. Some men design and make their own gods. Our

God designs and makes men!

We love you because He first loved us,

Dear Grands,

Ephesians 4:29, “Let no unwholesome word proceed from your mouth,

but only such a word as is good for edification according to the need of the moment,

so that it will give grace to those who hear.”

To edify means to build up. We ought always be available to help

build up others spiritually. And we do that through our words. Good

words convey the grace of God to others, whereby He is glorified.

Love you each and every one,

Dear Grands,

1 Thessalonians 5:23, “Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you entirely;

and may your spirit and soul and body be preserved complete, without blame at the

coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.”

Our LORD is a God of peace, and it is He who makes us holy. Our spirit is that

part of us that is God-conscious; our soul is that part of us that is self-conscious;

and our body is that part of us that is world-conscious. All of this the LORD

preserves completely for His Coming! Keep all of your thoughts on Him!

We love you more than you know,

Dear Grands,

Psalm 73:25-28, “Whom have I in heaven but You?

And besides You, I desire nothing on earth.

26 My flesh and my heart may fail, But God is the strength

of my heart and my portion forever. 27 For, behold, those

who are far from You will perish; You have destroyed all

those who are unfaithful to You. 28 But as for me, the nearness

of God is my good; I have made the Lord GOD my refuge,

That I may tell of all Your works.”

The LORD is all that matters. He is our strength from day-to-day.

He is our only good; and He is what He is to us that we tell

others of Him.

We love you all,

Nana & Dado III
