4 AM Phone Call

My sweet granddaughter used to dread talking on the phone when she was here she didn't want to talk to her mom and when she was there she didn't like to talk to us. She would tolerate it for a moment or two and then say she had something she just had to do. So I patiently refrained from calling and bugging her.

But glorious day, she has decided in the past couple weeks that she wants to chat up her Noni. So I have called more and just a few days ago she actually called me! She was so proud of herself and i was thrilled to get the chance to hear about her life.

Last night she got scared and called at 4 am and again I thanked God for the opportunity to comfort her even if it was from 500 miles away. We sang her Lissa prayer and we both felt better.

Lord above, comfort me
Give me courage
Help me see, guide my actions
Guide my words
Let me know, my prayers are heard.
Amen


I couldn't put my arms around her but it was so great to hear her sweet. little voice.


In Him,
Joyful
