Legacy of Faith

I was born into a Christian home because John and Dolores Leach loved the Lord
I gave my life to the Lord as a child because my grandparents impressed Scripture on their daughters’ hearts.
I made it through my teen years with my faith intact because the Leach girls where in church every Sunday.
I married a Christian man because my grandparents taught my dad to love by showing him the love of Christ.
My marriage has survived and been strengthened because Grandma and Grandpa spoke my name before the Lord everyday.
My children know the Lord because a foundation of faith was laid before I was born.
I will continue to serve the Lord for all the days of my life because I see the rewards of a life chosen to live by faith.
I rejoice today because the earthly rewards I see pale in comparison to the heavenly rewards my Grandpa is receiving for choosing that life marked by faith.
