Help me Mom! Mom, where are you?&#8221; In the dark I heard my mother&#8217;s voice say, &#8220;Marla, I am right here with you, don&#8217;t be afraid.&#8221; Even though it was still dark, just hearing her voice caused the fear to subside and I was safe, no longer afraid.<\/span><\/h6>\n<\/div>\n<h6>\u00a0<span data-offset-key=\"6hkpf-0-0\">When I went to bed last night I was reading a book that <\/span><span class=\"_247o\" spellcheck=\"false\" data-offset-key=\"6hkpf-1-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"6hkpf-1-0\">Barbara VanderWiele Davies<\/span><\/span><span data-offset-key=\"6hkpf-2-0\"> mentioned in our small group last night. It is called, &#8220;The God I Never Knew,&#8221; by Robert Morris&#8230;I went home and ordered it on my kindle&#8230;it is a wonderful book&#8230;He is talking about the Holy Spirit, how He is our helper&#8230;and so, what I understood was that when I called out for help&#8230;since my mother is now in heaven and no where I can talk to her in the physical&#8230;that it was actually the Holy Spirit saying to me, &#8220;Marla, I am here with you, don&#8217;t be afraid.&#8221; How awesome is that? We have a comforter, a helper who is always with us even in the dark! &lt;3 The other thing is, is that I since my mama&#8217;s presence with me all the time too&#8230;she can&#8217;t help me, but the Holy Spirit can, and does&#8230;He is an amazing Holy Breath of God who leads us gently and reveals Jesus to us continuously if we will only listen to His voice and not be afraid!<\/span><\/h6>\n<h6 style=\"text-align: right;\">~M.
