It's been ten years since my mama went to heaven and there are still moments when I have an overwhelming sense of missing her. I think of the five grandchildren that have been added to our family since she passed away and how tickled she would be with each one of them. I think of questions I wished I had asked her about her life or how she made some of my favorite dishes. With the missing her, comes the knowledge that, at age 63, there are still times I find myself needing my mama. I don't need her to take care of me or to help me; I don't need her for what she could do for me. I need her for what she was to me. (Join me for the rest of this post on Sunday, February 28th at Woman to Woman Ministries, where each Sunday I share a bit of Sunday Soul Food!)

Great words for life. If we do these things, we are following the example that Jesus set of Love and compassion. Happy Sunday.
