There is a saying that is common and I'm sure you have heard.

"Be careful what you pray for, you might just get it."

Every one of us have an appointment with death and your mother was evidently at the gate. God may have answered that prayer and your mother lived for two more years but wouldn't it have been better if she had gone on before laying that long in a coma.

I read one time of a mother who prayed for her son who was deathly sick and at the point of death. Her prayer was; "No matter what Lord, just let him live". The boy recovered and you heard of him as Al Capone.

We don't know about tomorrow but we certainly know who holds tomorrow. We therefore as Christians need to put things in God's hands and let go. Hard and seemingly impossible at times? Absolutely but faith is believing Romans 8:28; "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose."
