Estranged No More

Elizabeth Bryant the day she reconnected with her daughter.

I’m so excited! My and my daughter talked today, for the first time in two years.

There were no arguments — and I have to accept that I used to start most of those.

We ran into each other at the bus stop this morning. We just communicated and respected one another. I was so excited that I almost couldn’t stop talking. She took my number and said that all she wanted was for her mother to be in her life.

I just need to to trust in God and the Holy Spirit and Jesus Christ are in control, not me. I have to start right away praying that I don’t get back in the driver’s seat.

I just take one minute at a time and I pray that I don’t mess it up! I can’t stop putting in all the hard work that I have been in order to be a better person.

And I’ll be here. I’m waiting for the call.
