Held in the Light

As a mother I never thought I would be able to be held by my child....I'm supposed to hold them and bring them comfort, right?!

As I listened to the speaker this weekend talking about renewing my mind, she discussed how to erase and replace....take the negative thoughts that keep us chained down and stop them then erase them.....most importantly replace.....she spoke of picturing and feeling the heavenly light and love pour down over you....replacing all the darkness....

Then I could see it, you my Luke, hold your sissy and I in your light and love. I have such a clear image of holding your sister and this radiant white light shower us in warmth.....It is with a calm and love that only God, you and Heaven could provide.....

You can hold us right here on Earth in your love....how lucky am I, that I had this beautiful boy to pour his love over me and his sister her on Earth from above, and be waiting with open arms for us when we return to Heaven.....Wow! Thank you Luke.....thank you.

Because of You...

Because of you my Lukie, my life is so much richer. Though losing you nearly broke me into a tiny million pieces, the blessing that you are keeps me afloat.

Because of you I have 2 of the most wonderful friends that I wouldn't have known otherwise. They are probably 2 of the most beautiful women I've ever known.

Because of you I know the depths of my heart. I might know the pain and heartache, but that also I know pure endless love.

Because of you I know just how precious a heartbeat can be.

Because of you I know everyday I have with you little sister is a blessing and tomorrow is not guaranteed.

Because of you I know that all of nature dances around me sending messages of hope.

Because of you I know that your 2 sweet hands helped paint the rainbows that blaze across the sky sometimes, and the watercolor sunset that I saw tonight.

Because of you I finally understand my sister. She's a loving spirit that's often misunderstood because of all the hurt she's experienced.

Because of you I'm a more compassionate nurse and person, I understand people and the things they do more now. Grief can make you do some crazy things.

Because of you I can look forward because I know you are waiting for me at the finish line.

Because of you I'm a better person.

Thank you.
