Legacy: anything handed down from the past, inheritance
Faith: the obligation of loyalty or fidelity to a person, promise, engagement; the trust in God and His promises, as made through Christ and His Scriptures by which man is saved and justified
A Legacy of Faith...Henry Harold Eekhoff...born August 24, 1918...welcomed into heaven February 6, 2011.
"Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your Master’s happiness!" Matthew 25: 21
That is my Grandpa E.

I am sorry for your loss...those grandpa's who led by example are greatly missed. Your post was beautiful.
ReplyDeletePraise God for those faithful kin who go before us. Makes me think of that Steve Green song, Find us faithful..."the heritage of faithfullness passed on through Godly lives!...After all our hopes and dreams have come and gone
ReplyDeleteAnd our children sift through all we've left behind
May the clues that they discover and the memories they uncover
Become the light that leads them to the road we each must find...and isn't that our prayer? "May all who come behind us find us faithful" XXXX
