I am sorry that you weren't able to be with your grandma in person, either. I am glad that you felt a connection with her at her time of passing. What an awesome feeling that must have been. <br /><br />Yes, we have both been very blessed to have been loved by such wonderful women. May Our Father continue to bless you. :)Suzanne McClendonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15563562309945754772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3225598980946280003.post-29240654347214851292011-04-18T18:06:29.204-05:002011-04-18T18:06:29.204-05:00My grandmother who raised me died a state away.

I had 5 children, no family help to watch the kids so I could go visit - I too have grieved because I wasn't able to be there with the lady I loved so much, who taught me how to be strong. God gave me a sweet blessing, though. They called, Sunday evening saying "any time" - I went outside, faced north, read Proverbs 31 and prayed for her before I left for an evening of worship at church. She died during our praise and worship service. To this day, I believe that God let me feel her spirit pass to the other side during that time, that I was with her as her spirit was freed! We are both blessed to have been loved by these women! And, we both continue to pass those blessings down as a rich heritage!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3225598980946280003.post-8220027189083700502011-04-18T12:18:16.607-05:002011-04-18T12:18:16.607-05:00Thank you so much for stopping by and for your kin...Thank you so much for stopping by and for your kind comments, Lori.
