Please pray for me and my family as my mother passed away last night. All five kids in town were able to be around her bedside and then she quietly passed away in her sleep at 12:30 am. It gives us great comfort to know she is in God's arms. My mom was a very strong Christian and was witnessing 2 weeks prior to her going home. Heaven opened up its doors and rejoiced as she was escorted into heaven.
It is still very difficult for me because you always need your mother. Pray that God gives me the strength to get through this difficult time. I know He will give me peace and I thank Him for all the years we had with her. We were told 37 years ago that she was going to die of Hodgkins disease. God had other plans. He was not through using her yet.

I'm so sorry!! I know part of your heart takes comfort that she is with Jesus while part of your heart really aches. Ps. 116:15 "Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his faithful ones." Sounds like your mom fits this description.

ReplyDeleteSaying prayers for you tonight Judi! But knowing that your mom is enjoying the sweet presence of the Father takes away a bit of the sting.
