To God Be The Glory For The Things He Has Done

Macomb Hospital. My life did a complete 360. Today is a Memorial & Sadness day. It's been a year now since the Lord called my mother, my best friend home to glory. I thank God, for he knew what was best for mama. Now...if it would have been up to me...my mother would still be here. I know its Very Selfish of me, knowing the pain & discomfort my mother was in medically & physically........BUT THAT'S MY MAMA!!!!

Now.....I knew this day was going to come. I wasn't ignorant to the fact that one day the Lord was going to call her home.......but not now!!! See....we just lost her sister in the beginning part of the year. Then we lost two cousins in between. So....now we’re getting ready to EXHALE from all of that....this hits.....REALLY!!!!

The Lord knew better then me that mama was tired and was ready to go home. Yes that's what I said, she was ready to go home to glory. I didn't find this out until after everything was said and done. The Lord knew I most likely would have done my best to talk mama out of it. LOL…That could be why I didn't find out till later. She told a close friend of hers, but that was it.

My mother was a living testimony of God's keeping power. 66 years old, 15 of those years she was on dialysis. No amputations, was still in her right mind. Still had the actively of her limbs. Wasn't able to get around much, but was still able to feed her self and do her hygiene. In 1997 when they put her on a dialysis, they did a battery of test. They looked at my mother and said, Ms White you should have been dead 20 years ago.....

Even though today is a sad day for me, I'm so glad the Lord knew what was best for mama. I love her but God loves her more.......Exhale!!!
