Well the
ringing stopped and I heard my mother’s voice and she called my name. That’s it just my name. But the tone was clear. I had almost forgot that stern but sweet
sound when she wanted my attention yet was getting a little annoyed because I wasn’t moving fast enough. Now that was a curve ball. I sat up and laughed. I didn’t cry and that was the awesome part. I
have been crying since March 27, 2012. I’ve
been longing to hear her voice. For
those that don’t know she was my BEST FRIEND!
I talked to her everyday all throughout the day and life has been a little
dim since she went to be with Jesus.
So when I
heard her call my name I was tickled purple. It was the way she called me as to
say get it together girl, what is wrong with you. I taught you better and you know better. Let me rest child. I’m trying to enjoy my mansion and I keep
looking at you acting like a Psych patient.
In response
to that needed nudge, I am so thankful that the Lord has been good enough to
allow me to hear her voice, really hear it.
I was wide awake and I was not hallucinating. That was the best TGIF to date.


Ahhh!! What a blessing! I just smile for you that the Lord gave you that gift this morning.

Thanks shannon... It is a work in progress. 3rd attempt to blog and now it's for the glory of God.
ReplyDeleteWhat a special blessing you got today! My sweet Mom has been gone for 17 years and sometimes I wish I could hear her high clear voice sing again. But He comforts me in so many ways--thank God, we'll meet again. Thank you for visiting my blog--I'm following yours now.

Thanks Gin for stopping by and sharing a word of encouragement!
ReplyDeleteThat's beautiful! Sorry about the loss of your mother! My mom passed away Aug. 2, 2007, and sometimes it still feels like yesterday. What I wouldn't give to hear her voice just once more. You never in a million years could imagine that the lady who birthed you, raised you, nurtured you and of course was your best friend and sounding board is actually gone. God is so awesome though...He turned my mourning into joy and it makes it all better knowing that she is living her ultimate dream...living in eternity with her Savior!;-)) Thanks for the follow...following you back!
