A year ago, January 8th, my precious daughter was called home. It has been a very difficult year for all of us. The pain has been very intense for me, but I cannot begin to imagine the pain her three boys are experiencing. She not only loved her boys dearly; they loved her beyond measure. How does a grandmother help her grandchildren through such pain? My prayers daily have been for their welfare and healing.
On December 21, I received a call from Tim. I had not heard from him in years, I was surprised. He said, "Annette, I had a dream twice I think you should know about. In my dream I saw Johnny at the side door, as I was leaving Royalwood, and he told me to tell you they are alright. When I got outside the door, Johnny was gone. I could not find him anywhere." Tears fell as I thanked Tim for calling me. Royalwood was our church home while living in Houston. Tim is my former son-in-law.
God works in mysterious ways His wonders to perform! I wish I could say that all the pain is gone, but the pain is here to stay...just like with Johnny and Booger, but I do take comfort in knowing they are alright. And, one glad day, we will all be together again. Thank You Jesus!
