3. Anita, Aunt Joyce and Seth, 3.5 yrs ago.
Today we said good-bye to our dear Anita. She was my first cousin. We were the same age. I was honoured when asked by my aunt to read her tribute to her daughter. Here are a few quotes that I will always hold dear to my heart:
"Anita was almost 6 weeks old when I noticed a seizure - only seconds in length. I expected that God would heal her but that did not happen until Sunday, March 18, 2012". I got to see Anita three days before she died.
"Romans 8:28 'All things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose'. We will never know "why" here on earth, but we have trusted God's sovereignty, love and wisdom". When I lost my parents to cancer I was better able to understand, "Why not me" instead of "Why me". There are many things we may not understand but still continue to trust God.
