GRANDMA - WALK WITH JESUS














This picture is of me and my sisters with Grandma in 1981. I am the one in front with dark sweater.
As most of you know that I have been going through a difficult time the last week or two. My only grandmother left is sick and very sick indeed. She was admitted to the hospital this week to to have surgery, but that is not how it went. She did not get to have the surgery because of low sugar and other medical reasons. Instead I experienced something amazing. My grandmother had the most amazing talk with me and 10 other family members. She told all of us that it was her time to go. She said "I lived a full life and ready to go home and be with the Lord. I will never walk again here but am ready and go walk in heaven." She continued her talk with all of us and told us not to cry for her. That was really hard because all of us were. As she talked she would stare at the ceiling tiles, but she was truly looking past those tiles. She was seeing the one and only (JESUS). No one there said it but we all knew. She looked at those tiles and said"I am coming Jesus" As I sobbed, I realized what I just experienced and I could feel his presence and the hair on my neck was standing. I was so glad that I could be there to hear those words from such a loving and beautiful human being. That is something that I will hold dear to my heart.
I love you Grandma and will see you again I promise!
