Not About Morgan

Post 190

I received an early morning phone call letting me know that a person I'm very close to is now experiencing pain no mother should ever have to go through, but which I know well.

I didn't personally know the decreased well, so the grief I have been feeling the entire day is for her, her husband, and the remaining sibling. I am only thankful that I know they have a very strong support system around them, and like Morgan, this child now experiences no tears or pain.

No walk today, but when I returned from getting some groceries, I finally had another experience involving a sign from nature. A beautiful blue butterfly made her appearance and stayed around by walking around and flapping it's wings on a shoe again, so I began talking to her and asking if she'd been part of the welcome party. The butterfly stayed around so long that for the first time in my life, I tried to get it to climb onto my finger and it/she obliged and had no intention of leaving. I eventually had to move it back to the shoe and get on with my day.

I see it as a clear sign from God that He has them both in His embrace. The lack of nature in the past week to ten days made this butterfly stand out, and it was special to have this connection.

For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers,

nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the [unlimited] love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
