THAT WAY

Have you ever seen a 61 year old sitting in her closet, attempting to clean out her storage bins?
(It's a funny sight too) Well, this 'ole gal just couldn't cut it, after she found some pictures of her with her Grandmother Bouterse. I was probably about 9,or 10, and quite scraggly.(When I was young,if I turned to the side and stuck out my tongue,I looked like a zipper,I was so skinny!)
I spent most of my time,however,laughing, and thinking about this delightful lady.
She was always smiling and filled with the Lord's presence.My goodness, did she ever love Him!
I know she did,because she loved me too. When I asked her if she was afraid to die, she would always answer"No,I will see,my Lord and my Mama." Now to me, this was the simplest answer ever, and coming from someone who had never lied to me, I knew it had to be true......
When people tell you the truth, and don't lie to you about the simple,everyday things, you tend to believe them on the "biggie" things!
Atleast this little girl did!
She would also "just happen to mention" that Jesus told us that He was going to prepare a place for us, and that He would come back and takes us to be with Him......Boy, did I ever think that was cool!
I've been waitin' on the Rapture ever since then,folks!!!
She was pretty clever sneakin' in scripture this way, that grandmother who never went to college.
