Happy Heavenly birthday to this precious woman, my "Ba" that I am still honored to call not only my precious grandmother, but friend. I miss her so very much and her love, wisdom, and faith that filled my life with so much hope and love.
At one point during my health journey I had just found out that one of the most well known medical hospitals in the world felt my case was to complicated & that there was no hope. My dear grandmother, one of my best friends, my "Ba" came into my room in the early hours of the morning the next day and sat on my bed and spent time praying with me and over me for hours. As she finished she got up and said, "Rebecca, I don't care how bleak it looks or the fact that they say there is no hope...God is a God of miracles & has not abandoned you." I wept and held on to her words for the hours, days, weeks, months, & years ahead.... and have held onto them these past 5 years throughout some of the darkest moments of my life in loosing her and my precious daddy and so many other things behind the scenes that have been soul wrenching.
I have reflected on lot of things that made her the woman that she was. This memory remains one of my most treasured memories...the wisdom of a woman who had walked with God for decades and a faith that is unwavering in the midst of circumstances that would go to the contrary....
