With the birth of each of my grandchildren, along with the indescribable joy, I have also been keenly aware of the hole left in my heart by my precious Mama's leaving this earth. I have ached to share my joy with her; for her to be here to experience this JOY with me! Oh how happy and proud she would be!
Yesterday, with tears, as I was preparing to go to visit my little Isaac, I was aching for Mama and I asked the Lord out loud, "Jesus, does Mama really know about these babies? Does she really have anything to do with their coming here? Has she been there watching and praying as you formed them in the womb?"
Literally, Within one minute of that prayer, Ivey sent me a video of Hallie pretending to play the piano at the table. When Ivey asked her, "Who does that? Who plays the piano?", Hallie answered, "Nana."
Mama never got to meet Hallie here on this earth. I have shown her videos of Mama playing the piano and I have told her, "That's Nana and she loves Hallie."
This might have happened at any other time...but one minute after I asked Jesus that question...
"Yes, my child. She knows. She's watching. She's been all over the whole process, praying and rejoicing and offering her own creative ideas", I felt was His answer.
Sometimes these little things just happen and they remind me that "Somewhere out there, someone's saying a prayer"....
Face to face!
My God IS God!
