My mother had open heart surgery yesterday and I have to explain how it felt for me to be in this situation. God has humbled my heart and given me peace about a lot of things this week and this was one of them. I felt at ease about the whole situation. I felt like anything that happened, be it good or bad, I was ready for. It is one thing to know deep down inside that everything is going to be alright and another to react in a way that shows that and I know that God empowered me to do both. I am so thankful that everything has turned out to be okay so far and I pray in the days to come that my mother will make a full recovery, but I know reguardless of the situation God is here with me and my family and He is going to get us through this together. This also has been a bonding expierence for my family. We have really helped each other get through this and that is what families are for. I am certian that this was only the will of God and He deserves all the credit for that happening.
