A GUIDING LIGHT



As I lay in bed with depression and anxiety mourning the loss of my mother she comes to me in my dreams to tell me to let me know she is watching and with me everyday she lets me know that she is where she needs to be that she is most proud of me for being strong and becoming a better person and woman I was afraid at first to be alone without her because of the shadows and voices I have heard since she's being gone now I've gotten used to them rather it is you or someone playing with my mind I have become more in tune with the Lord I pray everyday I sing and dance a lot more with the Lord I have asked God to wash away my sins to make me a clean woman again
