Today, I am thinking about Grandma. [Do you write about these kinds of things for the world to see? Today, the answer is yes.] God seems to be granting her a very gentle transition into His presence. The past couple of weeks, she has spent more and more time asleep. Yesterday, she smiled a little and that was it, I was told. But Friday, when she was awake for 10-15 minutes as we visited, she was highly lucid and very present mentally. Then, she was just drifting in and out of sleep. She had been dreaming about Ronnie, she said. That's my Dad.
Don't you wonder if Jesus gets a welcoming committee together? [What will it be like to wake up and see Jesus' face? Wow...] Let's see... Claire and Ronnie and Jeff and Iona and...
I believe you are right -- a welcoming committee. I have the picture in my mind of family and friends greeting me enthusiastically as I step out of the jetway--- only this time, thanks to Jesus, I will not have to worry about juggling the luggage! :)
