The Joy of Seeing Your Grandchildren Read Your Words

There are few moments more tender than watching your grandchild curl up with a book—and not just any book, but one that you wrote. Their little fingers trace your name on the cover, their eyes light up as they recognize a story from your life, and suddenly, your words are no longer just ink on a page. They are a bridge between your heart and theirs.

A Legacy in Every Page

Psalm 145:4 reminds us: “One generation commends your works to another; they tell of your mighty acts.”

When you write—whether it’s a memoir, a devotional, or family memories—you are doing more than sharing stories. You are passing down faith, values, and life lessons. Your words become a legacy that whispers truth and encouragement long after you’ve gone home to the Lord.

The Gift of Shared Moments

Imagine this: your grandchild laughs as they read a childhood memory you captured. They see themselves in your struggles and find courage in your victories. They hear your voice in every sentence, and though miles or years may separate you, in that moment you are right there with them.

Writing gives your family a way to sit with you, learn from you, and feel your love—even when you can’t physically be present.

Faith Woven Into Story

Deuteronomy 6:6-7 says: “These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road…”

Your book can do that very thing—impress God’s truth on the next generation. Every story, every prayer, every scripture you include becomes a seed of faith planted in their hearts.

More Than a Book—A Blessing

Your words don’t have to be perfect or polished for them to matter. What makes them powerful is their authenticity. Each page is a piece of your faith, your love, your story.

When your grandchildren read your words, they’re not just reading a book. They’re reading you. They’re receiving a blessing that will outlive you.

Your Invitation to Begin

Dear friend, your story is too important to keep tucked away. Start today—write one memory, one prayer, one scripture. Don’t wait for “someday.”

And if you’d like a companion on the journey, I’d love to meet with you. Let’s explore how your story can become the legacy God is calling you to share.
