We did family there, with her in a coma. Before we left we always prayed. Daddy s were always short. Grandma like to have a little talk with Jesus, as the hymn said. Looking back now I am very much aware that my family gave me a message for life.
Life can be tough.
It s not always easy. But life lived in the context of God can be life triumphant, even against the odds. When mommy finally died, I can remember even now, thinking those words that daddy had said years before, Remember, we are part of something greater than ourselves. And it made a difference. Life lived in the context of real faith in God is life that can be lived not according to the vicissitudes of life but by the victory of God.
