Hi Karen,
I just discovered this post when I followed it from facebook. I appreciate what you wrote about your mom. I can tell you that even though my mom died 14 years ago this month, I have tears come after reading this and thinking about her. God is our strength and shield and He was so real to me during that time of caring for my parents and now having my husband disabled and being his caregiver. Our trust and faith in God deepens during these times of hardship like no other time. He teaches us gently to trust Him and get our comforts from Him and His Word. I don’t mean that I don’t feel His closeness other times, but during those hard times you cling like you never have before and you find trusting brings calm and peace and love to cover your hurts.
I think as I write this that we are glad that our memories stay fresh. It would be sad to not sense the loss even 14 years later.
Love you and thank you for being so open.
Carol

Karen,

I am sorry to hear about your mom. I feel so remiss in not checking in on you more often.

If it’s any consolation at all…9 1/2 years have passed for me in Jacob’s loss. It DOES lessen with time…you will NOT lose your memories of your mom…Jesus IS the Wonderful Couselor! He was always and continues to be with me when the times come that something will spark a memory. Grieving is a PROCESS…it takes time and He brings those to us when we are ready to move forward in the process. Each step brings us closer to peace and when we get to spend eternity together again.

Praying for you, my friend! Call me (816) 674-3869 anytime 24/7/365

Nope, no one had the nerve to taste it. We all refused. Too bad you weren’t there…I think you would have tried it!

Ok, who ate the snails? Who tried a small taste? Who refused all together?
