MODERN GRANDMOTHER
My grandmother makes neither pies nor cakes,
Nor sits in a rocking chair.
She doesn’t piece quilts or prepare country meals
Or wear a blue tint on her hair.

She doesn’t look old, and she doesn’t stay cold
Like other grandmothers seem to do.
She’s not overweight, and, in fact she looks great,
And there’s nothing that she couldn’t do.

I hope and pray that when time brings the day
And I also will stand in her place,
That I too can be just as lovely as she
In spirit, in strength, and in grace.

ARE YOU A MOVIE GOER?
The editor is in search of someone who enjoys movies for a new entertainment review column. Movies such as “The Blind Side,” “Get Low” and “Like Dandelion Dust” which deal with Christian themes such atonement and forgiveness or families living their Christian values would be good starters. The column could be extended to cover Christian artists and concerts also. If this piques your interest, please see Elaine Hardy.
