So Grandma Kerr is in heaven today. At 102 she waited 21 years to be with her hubby again. For longer than that - looked forward to being with Jesus.

"I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus." Philippians 3:14

What a legacy; what an inspiration!

Above the memories of her "adventurous driving" or walking in on her "air-drying" at the cottage, I remember her love for God - genuine - how she would just step into a private sanctuary during worship. I remember the Word rolling off her lips - not just rehearsed - rooted. I remember sitting on the roof of her cottage eating ice cream cones - did she even know that we did that! :-))

May we live today with hearts intent on the goal: Acts 20:24.
