I rejoice with you over your daughter and the love that she models for others in her care for you. What a wonderful blessing. I was given the honor of caring for my mother in the last 5 months that she was with us here on Earth. She had five tumors in her lungs and she did not want to go into a nursing home, thank goodness, and so she decided that she would come to us, Roy Lee and I in New York. These five months were miraculous. I was attending meetings at the home of a Mennonite couple who had recently moved to a larger home after their fifth child was born. They kept the first home they had lived in because there was much land attached to it that Daniel used to grow crops for the organic food store that they owned. Roy Lee and I we’re living in a small one bedroom apartment about 450 square feet and we decided that the size of our apartment did not matter. I had a leading in my spirit that the Lord would make a way for us to find a larger place so that my mama could have her own room preferably with a bathroom close to it. When Daniel and Mindy heard what we had done they decided we could rent first home that had been empty for 5 years. You can imagine how excited I was. It was a two-story house with five bedrooms that Daniel had built for Mindy as a wedding present. Those were the best 5 months that my mother and I had experienced in many many years. During that time our relationship was healed but more importantly my mama repented and the fear that she had about dying left her and she was in perfect peace. I was overwhelmed with gratitude and I still can’t thank God enough for his great-great Mercy. I was in the room with her holding her hand as she left this world and went on to the next and all I can say is that I will be eternally grateful that I was able to be with my mama when the Lord took her home.
