Henry's mother, Jane Shelton Williams Bowers finished her race today and is home with the Lord.
She was 94 years old and had faithfully loved the Lord Jesus for many, many years. Her prayer journal was amazing, very organized; she covered her loved ones with her abundant prayers.
Thank you,Great Shepherd, for a record of Granny B's investment in lifting her worries, cares and loved ones to the Lord and seeking to know your Word. Also her hospitality lists that include both guests and the menus she planned to serve them. She is an inspiration to so many of a life well lived despite many struggles including the loss of two husbands to heart atacks and a daughter to cancer. Many caregivers paused in her room in the nursing home to share with us the courage and grace they felt as they looked in her big, blue eyes. She will be missed so much!
We are so grateful for her strong commitment to God's word. Her love and joy for each of her 5 children, 14 grandchildren and 26 great grandchildren was obvious. Jane rested in the truth that "His eye is on the sparrow and I know He watches me" and "The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms."
What a glorious, new life in heaven she is now experiencing!
"Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever!!!"
