My Mom and Trials

These are pictures of my mother. She is a strong, brave woman. That has fought more battles in her life than most people do. Amazingly she has won all her battles even when modern medicine has told her she would not. God has answered many prayers and sent many blessing on the path of the life of this wonderful woman. Some great blessings though are hard to see as such. Sometimes the blessings sent to us are seen as trials and hard times. It’s not until after the trial is over that one is blessed to see the blessings inside of it. God has seen fit to pick a time to call this glorious woman back home. She has one last battle with Leukemia, one with which she cannot win. When thinking of death I can’t help but to think of life. For they are so intertwined and interconnected together. Birth is but a step where we travel from one home to another. Death is also simply a step in which we travel from one place to another. A grand adventure in the path of life, going on to another place to see what awaits us there. When someone you love passes on to the next side they always take a piece of you with them, a piece of me is already in Heaven with my son. It’s amazing though the peace and comfort that our Father in Heaven can give to us when we are going through the sorrows of this life. There are amazing things awaiting us in the next realm, like the ones who go on before us. My mother only has a short time left to walk this mortal realm but so many things to look forward to in the next. A small twinge of jealousy from me, she will get to see and be with my Kolob before I do. We must all wait until are appointed time though and I still have much to do. May God speak peace to all our souls as she leaves us and travels and may her grand adventure continue on and may she accomplish the mighty works for which God surely intends for her to accomplish on the other side!!! Until then we will try to enjoy whatever time God blesses us with. Love you Mom!!!!
