My grandmother, Eva was an exceptional Christian whose foundation was built on her knowledge and faith in Jesus Christ. When the Lord took her home on December 26, 2007 she didn’t leave me an account full of money, a car, or a home; she left me with a priceless gift, a spiritual legacy. I can recall her sitting at the kitchen table with a Bible, a notebook, and a cup of coffee intensely studying the word of God. Only after her death did I realize all those hours of bible study and notes were placed neatly in envelopes labeled with the book, chapter, and verse she was studying. When I found these envelopes I discovered a precious treasure that opened my eyes to my grandmother’s faith and love for God. Although no longer physically present, my grandmother continued to share her faith with me.
