Trusting

I am not sure why things happen the way they do sometimes.  I know that I am a child of God, and that being His child He has my best interests at heart.  My prayer today was that I would make it to Michigan in time to see my Mother before she passed away....

I checked in for my flight, kissed Cal goodbye and went into Customs to fill out my card....when I heard my name being called.  I turned to see Cal and I went over to him....in just this short span of time, my sister had called to tell him my Mom had died.

My heart felt like it broke into a million pieces.  My Mother is gone.  Her wish was to not have a funeral and she wanted to be cremated...which means by the time I get to Michigan there will be nothing for me to touch...

But left is my brother and sister and I will be there for them, and us for eachother.  Most importantly I know God will comfort me like none other can.  For now I will just focus on getting through this day and let Him help me take one step at a time.
