Praying

Today I am going home to Michigan to see my Mother.  She has been fighting cancer....but her fight is almost over.  My sister called me late last night to tell me something was wrong and they were taking her to the hospital.  When I called this morning I found out that she is slipping away.  I have been through many hard things in my life, but I have not felt the loss of a parent before, and the pain is so strange...I feel like a child in my heart.  I am almost 40 yrs old, but I feel like a child who doesn't know what to do....and yet, I know that my FATHER is with me and He will help me through these dark hours and days ahead. 

My flight will not get into Detroit until around 10pm, and the drive to Lansing will have me there very late; but my prayer is that God will keep her here on this earth till I can see her, touch her, kiss her and tell her that I love her.  Please, if you are reading my post today, pray that with me.

Psalm 113:3
