I recently read about a relative of mine named Mary. Her life story was written down on a couple of pages. I learned she and her family faced many hardships. One gem from her story that stuck out to me was this one below.

“As a mother of nine children I have had a very full life, even though I have seen many hardships.” By- Mary Josephine Morris Foster

Mary found her life fulfilled through her family, belief in Jesus Christ, and important life lessons learned. No matter how hard life can be at times, we all have the opportunity at the end of our lives to say we lived a very full life.
What will that look like for you? What did that look like for your ancestors?

Who in your family line has inspired you?

I’ve been thinking about who in my ancestry has inspired me recently. Today I am thinking about my grandfathers. Each has left a lasting impression on me as I remember their great examples. Some of these lasting impressions were made while spending time with them and others were made while hearing memories from those who knew them well. As I think of these memories, I feel close to all of my grandfathers and am grateful to know of them.
