Nobody but God knows what your feeling, my heart goes out to you during your hour of sorrow.
your mother was a beautiful person that was loved by so many people because of the way she carried herself she was truly a God fearing woman.
hold on to all your memories and trust God to bring you through the good days and the bad days.
Never be afraid to call on His mighty name.
remember God said that He would not put no more on us than we can bear and He would not leave nor forsake us.
so just hold on to your Faith and trust God.
because Faith means taking God at His word.
