Loss is gain

I lost my mom this week. And throughout the process, I believe that her Spirit jumped bodies from the broken down body of a vert geriatric woman to the not so broken down body of an aging woman. I have been confronted with a sister-in-law who, bless her heart, seems fit to give me advice on any topic from how I run my business to how I run my personal life. At mom's funeral I was introduced as Brian's (my oldest brother) sister. I piped in to say I was mom's caregiver for the past 20 years. I felt saddened by losing mom, glad that she went peacefully and oddly enough emboldened that she taught me well and fixed things for both me and my brother so that none of her expenses had to be paid by us. So I rejoice in the gain of renewed strength of belief that God works in everything and through everything and I am praising God for giving me His peace and allowing me to be bold. May God bless all of us.
