Forever Family ~ Forever Home
Many of you know that my Grandpa, Arnie Skrivseth, died on Saturday Sept. 27. He was busy pouring cement for a small walk for Grandma. He died with his boots on... a good reminder of his life.
I have many good memories of Grandpa... he used to pull my two, long, braids. I would trail him around, watching his every move, as he welded one thing or hammered another. He would sit in his easy chair and study the Bible. He played his violin practically everyday.
All of his children came... his family. Yet he wasn't here with us. It's hard to get used to the idea that our bodies don't stay on this earth forever.
Let me share about where Grandpa is now: I can see a handsome young man walking with his best friend, his Savior. They are laughing and talking like good friends do. Jesus is showing him all that He has prepared for His children... the beautiful water and trees all around the streets of gold, the mansions all ready for them.
Yes this is his new home. He is in his forever home. He had to leave his forever family down here, but we won't be parted for long.
Please pray for Grandma and all the family and friends. We are saddened by his being gone, and excited about his forever home with Jesus.
