In reply to Sharon. It seems like nineteen long years and it seems like nineteen extremely short years too, doesn't it?

Nineteen years is too long, indeed.

In reply to Patty.

So beautifully said, Patty. Thank you so much for sharing here. I have a friend who went through losing her mom slowly to Alzheimer’s, and she told me, “I said goodbye to my mom long ago…” even though her mom was still physically present. Thank God for His hope….blessings on you and yours!

I share your pain and your loss, though somewhat differently. My Mom was lost to Alzheimer’s long before she left this world to be with our Father. So I mourned her loss while she was still physically here, but mentally and emotionally unable to be with us in the present. I think what we miss isn’t the sharing of the stories, we still do that. What we miss is their response, their reaction to the joyful things that came, in no small part, from them. I would dearly love to have that validation; to see the smile that starts in her eyes when she was happy. Someday, someday…..

The Lord and His word speaks of Blessings of Generation.

Some have the blessings and some do not, it is our Walk and our seeking Him and obeying His word, is where we can obtain the generation to generation blessings.

I see the blessing of Mom in her love of Him now being passed on to Generation to Generation.

Psalms 78:6 so that the next generation would know them. Children yet to be born would learn them. They will grow up and tell their children
Psalms 79:13 Then we, your people, the flock in your pasture, will give thanks to you forever. We will praise you throughout every generation.
Psalms 89:1 A maskil by Ethan the Ezrahite. I will sing forever about the evidence of your mercy, O LORD. I will tell about your faithfulness to every generation.
Psalms 89:4 ‘I will make your dynasty continue forever. I built your throne to last throughout every generation.'” Selah
Psalms 102:18 This will be written down for a future generation so that a people yet to be created may praise the LORD:
Psalms 119:90 Your faithfulness endures throughout every generation. You set the earth in place, and it continues to stand.
Psalms 145:4 One generation will praise your deeds to the next. Each generation will talk about your mighty acts.

Blessings My Sister, enjoy your generational blessings that you now see, hear, feel and know in your heart.
