In the peaceful hours of the morning, my mama left this world. She went heavenward. It rocked the foundation of my world and tore me apart, but, thankfully, she is suffering no more. Her chains of disease are gone. She’s been set free from pain and old age. There is now peace in her valley.
My best friend from birth took a piece of my heart with her. In my sadness, there is gladness. I am thankful for Jesus’ provisions of grace, mercy, forgiveness, love, and joyful memories.
Till we meet again, Mama, I will never be the same. Forever changed, Forever loved.
And the dust returns to the earth as it was, and the spirit returns to God who gave it. Ecclesiastes 12:7
