Three Years Ago

Momma, it has been three years ago today, since you went home to be with Jesus. I cannot believe it has been that long already. I still think of you everyday, miss you everyday, and love you more everyday. It was so very hard when you first left, I broke into many pieces, like a jigsaw puzzle. I did things I should never have done momma, I became a cutter. I was just trying to ease the hellish pain I was feeling. I pray you forgive me for my careless, and foolish actions. I am much better now, I know you are happy and healthy, and that makes my heart happy. I have dad in my life now, and he is serving the Lord momma. Can you believe it? Our prayers came true, woo hoo!! One day soon, we will all have a beautiful family reunion. I cannot wait to see you, hug you, and give you sweet butterfly kisses. I will forever love you, and miss you until then momma. Blowing you kisses momma, please catch them like you use to. Bye for now my precious momma, and best friend.  Nesie

Mothers are so special. Your post reflects that special bond you had with your mother. I also lost my mother first and my father surrendered to the Lord years after she passed away. They're both now home with the Lord. I was devastated and almost got depressed when I lost my mom. But the Lord comforted me and showed me, her life didn't end, it was just the "beginning." May the memories with your mom that you hold dear comfort you today. God bless you. Love and hugs to you. Rosel

Take joy in your heart dear one that your mom is in an eternal life with Him, a place that we all look forward to going to some day. It's hard to lose a parent. I, too, loss my mom three years ago. For those of us left behind here, it's hard some times, but when we channel our thoughts on Him and where she truly is...it's ever so joyful.

I'm praying for you today dear one. Enjoy the happy memories of your mom and it is SO WONDERFUL that you and your dad are reunited and together this day. That, in itself, is a beautiful thing.

Hugs and blessings,
Alleluiabelle

Denise,
As you know my mom is in a nursing home now. She will be 84 years old in July. The doctors have called Hospice in now. I know that my mother's life on this earth is coming to an end. I also know God is in total control. So dear friend I know you miss your mom, but remember you all will be reunited in Heaven. I am asking you to remind me too when my mother leaves this earth that I will see her again! Thank you my dear friend. God bless you sweetie! Many prayers and hugs to you.

Bless you, sweet Denise. I know how hard days like today are... I'm glad my funny post gave you a little something to smile about. And the song keeps running through my head... "There will be a day, with no more tears. No more pain, and no more fears. There will be a day.. when the burdens of this place will be no more. We'll see Jesus face to face. But until that day, we'll hold on to you, always....." Amen.. lifting you up, and holding on.....
