So many things have been on my mind over the past months. I have
not written because I have struggled with the selfishness inside of me. I had
so many plans for my time. I was entering the empty nest period of life, I
could finally pursue my wants, my dreams and make them come true. I was done
parenting. No more responsibility for another person's well-being. I was free!!
Sigh. Not to be. Yet, that small hand in mine, that "I want my Mama (what
my grand-daughter now calls me). The little face snuggling into my neck, the
"I love yous" proclaimed throughout the days--what could be of
greater value in life. Oh, God I pray I pass this test. Give me the strength I
need to parent once again. I fall before you in utter humility and ask,
"Why me? Who am I to be chosen for such a privilege as this? To once again
mold a little life; to guide an innocent to You. Please be with me all the way,
as without you I cannot prevail. Amen."
