One of the most significant things that my mother said to me last was on the 2nd to last hour of her life.
She told me (or us kids and my Grandmother): Don't you see how much we need God right now?
I knew the answer, but I was too angry to say. I cursed her and thought to myself, "What an idiot..."
When the car had stopped tumbling and everything had come to, I suddenly remembered what mom had said.
And we DO need God. Always.
I miss her so much. It's really hard to do normal things and realize that my mom isn't there to enjoy the "same old" like me. But I'm honestly so glad that she's experiencing the greatest experience ever, and that is to be in the presence of God himself in Paradise, where she is no longer suffering.
I must press on with life. It's going to be very different, granted, but life should go on. However, I will live it out differently. I will live every day of my life trying to serve my God and my Savior, for His glory forever and ever. I will not forget His grace and love for me.
I will live for Him.
