The Power of Prayer

Last weekend I was pretty sure Mom wouldn't make it to this weekend because she was in really bad shape, very low blood pressure, not eating or drinking, not knowing sometimes who I was, etc.

On Monday, a few people from her church came over and sang to her, prayed with her, read a few scriptures to her, and gave her communion.  Tuesday afternoon she was up and on the couch and watching tv.  I mean no, she wasn't out dancing in the streets or anything and not eating anything, but she was feeling a lot better.  And for the past couple of days since, she gets up in the morning and lays on the couch and watches tv, has talked with friends who have come over or have called, she is drinking more liquid, and even eating a little more.  Not a whole lot, but much better than she was.

I truly believe it is God, though maybe not healing her, but letting her feel okay and having little-to-no pain. I am a great believer in God and the power of prayer and He listened to those prayers.  And even if she did pass away tonight, at least she wasn't in pain. Only God knows when He is going to take her and I just hope that when He does, it will be peaceful for her and let her continue to not be in pain.

In the meantime, thank you God for this time.
