If you are looking for God, look no further than your very own grandkids! Grandkids are a joy rounding every corner. God teaches us to seize the moments that he gives us with them by letting us see their wonder and opportunities and engage in the very joy of each relationship with them. In Ain't Life Grand, author Catherine Jodeit shares her blessing of grandchildren with the world. This daily devotional offers the insight and reflection for any parent to remember that children are God's greatest blessings. It doesn't take much for God to display his wonders through grandkids, but we have to be active participants, with open minds and open hearts and a willingness to pursue things that may very well seem ordinary. There is joy in the discovery and a sense of wonder in God's lessons.
