Sometimes we take for grated just how precious life really is. We just assume that we will wake up and do our normal morning routine and go on with our busy life. This was not the case for my mom last Wednesday morning. She started her day with calling out to my dad, asking for prayer because she did not feel right. In the mist of prayer she passes out on him and hits the tub. Dad calls 911, and with instructions he tries to do everything that they are telling him to do until the EM T's gets there. How terrifying that must have been. Your mate, the love of your life lay lifeless in the floor. I'm sure pure panic was going on, crying out to the Father for help.
The day ended for my mother with not having a clue to what had happened to her through the course of the day. A stroke. Transported twice by ambulance, having been cut open and having a tube in your throat to help you breath and a tube in your head with it draining fluid. Even now, with 5 days in the hospital she still doesn't realize how close she came to death.
If we really thought about it, there has probably been many times, God has saved us from death. I know that in His timing when it's time for us....it's time. But everyday we should praise Him for the day we have with our family and friends. We should try our hardest to be Christ-like in every way possible.
My moms recovery might be slow, but I'm thankful to still have her. Life is Precious...Life is Sweet!!!
Blessings to you!
