A serious moment … with god

MumI had a lovely email from a lady, called Fay, who had found my blog via the Marie Curie activities on Wednesday.  She had also lost her mother when she was young and had never known anyone in the same situation.  I pointed her in the direction of my serious blog.

She emailed me later and said “Someone said something amazing to me the other day. I was explaining that my mum had a strong faith in God and I know it helped her in the final months of her life. My friend said mum would have prayed for me and that those prayers have no time limit. God will be acting on her prayers now. I’m not a religious person really but that thought was a huge comfort to me. I’m sure your mum would have done the same.”

… and do you know what … my mum was religious, more so during her illness. I am not religious, God and I just don’t get on, so I’m not sure if this makes me a hypocrite or not, but I’ve got a great deal of comfort from reading those words.

Thank you Fay x
