My Moment of Remembrance: Reflection of Her Legacy
When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
1 Corinthians 13:11
Have you ever found yourself counting how many people were in a room or looking to see if a certain someone had shown up so you could make a mad dash to your pre-planned just encase exit?
Even if you can't relate, many times over I'd be doing just that when visiting my grandma and a 3 count was my que to bust move - oh okay 1 person stay cool, wait a minute a person done turned into 2 people...hold on is that a third person... Sis it's time to go... right now... hurry, come on girl.... and at first she didn't get it so we'd end up caught up in the rapture...
You see, grandma really believed when 2 or 3 are gathered Jesus was there is the mist, which meant when too many people gathered momo would say it's time to have church...
Often when we're kids there are things we don't fully understand. I'd find myself thinking don't momo know that church for Sunday... I'm sick all this church stuff, it's not Sunday yet or today is just Monday we just went to church yesterday, I knew I shouldn't come see you today...
But now that I've grown into adulthood I see the life lesson she was truly teaching me - that God is not reduced to a day, a church gathering, or a building because we need Him everyday, and as his children we are the church, we can have church anytime and anywhere.
So, I'm honored to say Lillie Mae taught me how to have church, not just on Sunday or Monday, but Sunday through Monday.
And because of that I stand anchored and assured and want those who loved Lillie Mae to
"Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also."
John 14: 1-3
The angels welcomed her home and she's not just sitting with the Father, she's sitting in the place The Father prepared for her.
And her legacy lives on because of the seeds she planted... as a kid caught in the rapture her song for me was Jesus Loves Me; as an adult my song for her was You Are My Strength.
So, on the days and in the moments to come, if grief and sorrow grips you so heavy you feel you can't go on - remember, at the end of your strength, the Lord's strength begins and His strength is like no other and it reaches to us.

“If Roses Grow in Heaven”
If roses grow in heaven,
Lord please pick a bunch for me,
Place them in my Mother’s arms
and tell her they’re from me.
Tell her I love her and miss her,
and when she turns to smile,
place a kiss upon her cheek
and hold her for awhile.
Because remembering her is easy,
I do it every day,
but there’s an ache within my heart
that will never go away.
