Thoughts of my precious sister entering into eternity...

For so long, I've prayed that if it was not within God's perfect will to heal my sister,Dianne, on this side of eternity--to take her home. That happened on August 12, 2009. I stood by her bedside and told her that she had pneumonia.  "Dianne, this is not good for someone in your condition-completely bedridden." I saw one tear trickle down from her one good eye. I believe that may have been the last tear that she shed and God wiped that one away. Today Dianne is in eternity with Jesus. She is no longer trapped in a body that refuses to work but has a glorified body now!

About two months before Dianne was stricken with pneumonia, I dreamed that she came to visit me and she was beautiful. She was healthy and vibrant looking. I told her this in the dream. A couple of days later, her 47th birthday rolled around. I walked into my church that particular Sunday morning, sporting a spiffy black dress with a covering of many colors flowing the length of the dress. One of my friends said to me, "My Frances, you look pretty today. As a matter of fact, you look beautiful. Just like a bride!"

Now, don't you find it odd that the very words that I said to my sister in a dream came back to me on that day? On Dianne's birthday!  I think it is quite amazing and this goes to show that God gives us premonitions on occasion--if we will walk close enough to Him to pick up on these things. Otherwise we may completly miss it! Know what I mean?
