Faith Whatley is the Director of Adult Ministry at Lifeway. She gives overall leadership to anything related to publishing, events, training and marketing for adults.
Although I have not participated myself, I have loved reading the “Thankful” posts on Facebook this month. My daughter has been listing what she is thankful for each day. As I read her posts, I am overwhelmed at her words. As a parent, you can’t help but pinch yourself when your child says something that resonates with you so deeply; that especially happens when you are deeply connected.
I am so thankful God gave me a daughter, but, more than anything, that He gave me Grace Ellen. Her smile has slayed me every single time for 22 years. I am watching her navigate a situation with love, grace and so much patience. She is walking down a path where I can’t necessarily always guide her because I have not experienced it myself.
I’m so proud of her as I have watched her demonstrate wisdom beyond her years. She has grown so much in her faith and walk with the Lord because she is truly depending on Him. I am so thankful for my girl.
