Whoever becomes simple
and elemental again, like this child, will rank high in God’s kingdom.
(Matthew 18:2-5 Message)
Forgive me a proud Grandma moment.
My daughter-in-law’s grandmother passed away
recently. Of the considerable family gathered, my little girl is the one who
said, “Mimi has gone to be with God in heaven.”
Mimi died of cancer, and her final days were
difficult. Jordan still had Mimi on her mind. In her night time prayer, she
asked, “Please make Mimi feel better.”
Mimi was in heaven, with only God to take care of
her. Jordan just wanted to talk to God about her.
My daughter Jolene had a similar kind of faith.
She pictured flinging herself into Jesus’s waiting arms when she died. When she
died, I’m sure He stood, arms flung open to hold her.
Right before the end, my mother developed signs
of dementia. One time when I came to visit, she was sitting up in bed, speaking
quietly. She smiled brightly when I
entered. “I was just talking to Jesus about you.” She knew His presence, not by
faith alone but with a childlike understanding.
Church hymns touch our residents Like the people
here at the nursing home who cry, sing along or cry, when visiting churches
sing the songs of childhood. “Tell me the story.” “Amazing Grace.” “Jesus Loves
Me.”
Confused minds. Incomplete thoughts. Irrational
thinking.
But…faith that God is at the center of
everything. Faith like a child.
I pray that I cling on to Jesus with that kind of
faith as my time comes closer.
That faith is so wonderful....God bless u
