A Good Grandmother
2 Timothy 1:5
When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in you, which dwelled first in your grandmother Lois, and your mother Eunice…


"I owe a great deal to nay grandmother," said a young man who was courageous and true above many in his Christian life. "Why, what did she do for you? Oh, she just sat by the fire." "Did she knit?" "A little." "Did she talk to you?" "A little; but grannie was not much of a talker; she did not go in for all that, you know; but she just sat and looked comfortable, and when we were good she smiled, and when we were wild in our talk she smiled too, but if ever we were mean she sighed. We all loved her, and nobody did as much for us, really, as grannie."
