The past few days have been strange, they've been surreal. There is always room for miracles, but my mom seems to be very close to starting eternity with God. When you grow up thinking about the future, you never anticipate loosing a parent early in life. My mom's cancer has taken over her body. This past Monday Hospice brought in a hospital bed for my mom and she's become almost unresponsive. It's probably been the hardest thing to see the one lady, that I've looked up to the most, dying in front of my eyes. To tell you the truth it kinda sucks.
Dealing with all this this week God has made his presence known in my life so much. I look at my mom and know that one day I will see my mom again. It is unreal the amount of support my family has had through all this, the amount of food we have for dinner, the love we've experienced is unreal. God has not left me in this time of trouble, if anything, he has wrapped his arms around me even more. God has given me a peace about my families situation, soon my mom is going to be sitting at the feet of our Savior. What greater gift is there? I'm not taking this peace and using it to replace grief, but it gives me hope. These next few months to a year are probably going to be some of the hardest for my family, but I am thankful and sooo grateful to say that I will see my mom again one day. Don't get me wrong it is an EXTREMELY hard and saddening time but it's a I'll see you later sad not a goodbye forever sad. God has made himself known through my mom lying in her hospital bed.
