The Grands Letter

Dear Grands,

Psalm 139:1-6, “O LORD, You have searched me and known me.

2 You know when I sit down and when I rise up; You understand my thought from afar.

3 You scrutinize my path and my lying down, And are intimately acquainted with all my ways.

4 Even before there is a word on my tongue, Behold, O LORD, You know it all.

5 You have enclosed me behind and before, And laid Your hand upon me.

6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; It is too high, I cannot attain to it.”

Were we to give more thought to the LORD than we do,

we would erase the troubles we face before they arise.

Please pray for Nana and me as we journey to Southwest City, Missouri today.

I am supply-preaching for Dr. Robert Grimm, who with his wife, is vacationing

with family in North Dakota.

We love you all,

Nana and Dado III

Dear Grands,

Colossians 1:3, “We give thanks to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,

praying always for you.”

We will be in Southwest City, Missouri tomorrow. I will be preaching at

First Baptist Church for Dr. Robert Grimm, who is visiting family in

North Dakota. Please pray for us.

Love you all,

Nana & Dado III

Dear Grands,

Psalm 119:133, “Establish my footsteps in Your Word,

And do not let any iniquity have dominion over me.”

Back in Psalm 119:11, David said, “Thy Word have I hid in mine heart,

that I might not sin against thee.”

It is repeated in verse 133 because it must never be

forgotten. Start each day by reading from God’s Word.

And when iniquities (evil thoughts or ideas) come into

your mind, renounce them immediately! Wash your

mind of evil thoughts by reading and meditating on

God’s Word.

We love you! Pray for us, as we pray for you

Dear Grands,

Psalm 118:8, “It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in man.”

This verse is the central verse of the Bible. It also bears a central teaching:

the LORD Himself is our trust, our refuge, our defence. We’re plagued today

with instances of earthquakes, tornadoes, viruses, wars, and numerous other

issues, many of which utterly confound modern science. Where do we look for

the answers? The LORD! He and He alone is to be trusted, and His Word is

our sanctuary.

Be secure today in our LORD Jesus Christ,

Dear Grands,

Please read this entire Psalm:

Psalm 117, “Praise the LORD, all nations; Laud Him, all peoples!

For His lovingkindness is great toward us, And the truth of the LORD is everlasting.

Praise the LORD!”

Verses don’t always have to be long to be meaningful.

Here the Psalmist tells us to praise the LORD; then, he

tells us why. How great the love of the LORD is! And

how eternal is His truth!

No one ever cares for us like Jesus,
