Things to remember


Most of you who read this already know that my grandmother Entwistle went to be with Jesus on Monday night. It's something so bitter sweet because we are selfish humans and we want those that we love to be around. On the other hand, as members of the Lords family, we are happy to know that she is in Heaven. A place that we will all be. In heaven there is no more sadness, no more pain, no more med's, just rejoicing with the angles because our god is a gracious and good God.
For all who knew my grandmother they would say that she had a good life. She has a wonderful husband who loved her very much. I remember seeing them in church every Sunday. He would help her walk up the three steps in front while carrying her Bible for her. They would always sit to the far left side of the church and the pew with the same couples in front and behind them. When my grandmother was not sitting in service she was serving in the nursery. She has always loved kids. Even in her later days her face would always light up when she was around kids. I guess she would love kids because she was a fantastic mother to 7 children.
I love my grandmother, and I'm so grateful for the time and love she poured into her kids. Because she did, I have a fantastic father who loves the Lord, his wife, his kids and his gran kids (not to mention the grand dogs). I love my family and I am proud to have strong Entwistle blood running in my body.
