Today is the first day...

Today is the first day....

Today is the first day, you woke up and realized that she is no longer able to be reached by phone.

Today is the first day, you wished, she would have held on a little bit longer to see the birth of your first child.

Today is the first day, you think about all the things you could have, should have and would have done different.

Today is the first day, you realize that you knew was coming, but dreaded.

Today is the first day, you will learn how to trust God more, exercise your faith and believe in the hope we read and know about in the one who is the true anchor of our soul.... Jesus

Today is her first day, in the presence of our Lord and Savior.

Today is her first day, running on the street of gold, no longer bound to a bed, wheel chair or cane.

Today is her first day, breathing with lungs that are no longer infested with the poison of chemo or cancer.

Today is her first day, catching up with the saints that have gone before us.

Today is her first day, experiencing all the treasures in heaven, the paradise the the promises that we believe that are awaiting for us in a place He went to prepare for us. She is in her mansion.

Today is her first day in Eternity.


Today will turn to tomorrow, and so on and so on. Time doesn't heal wounds, time only makes it easier. There will be days when is seems like eternity since she has been gone and then days when it was just like yesterday. Days when you experience the peace and joy that she is no longer suffering and days when the pain feels so raw, you don't understand Gods timing.

 But this we know shorty, that God is the giver of life and the same God that took your mom home is the same God who knew you would need the newness of life in that womb of yours. I'm not going to lie and tell you it will be easy, but you know more than anyone how life can be so tough.

But this I know that we serve a God who's power can and will reach down in the darkest moments and grab ahold of our hearts and hand and we just know we will get through it.

I love you and praying Gods peace..
