DOT 211 : RAYS

THE FINAL CHAPTER : A SPIRITUAL JOURNEY (Sept 2009 to Jan 2010)
 
At the Grotto of Our Immaculate Conception, in Lourdes   

Daniel (14+ years old) (Monday 28/9/2009) 

Day 19 in Lourdes

NOVENA DAY 11
 
It truly was a beautiful, sunny day that day. 
After saying our prayers, we headed to our usual spot beyond the stream, to bask in the sun for a bit. 
During these moments in the sun, it would appear to Mom that God is shining His holy rays down on You. 
Who could blame her? 
You always looked so contented and at peace resting in the Son, a delicate moment so beautiful to watch. Even though at a distance, Mom could sit there all day long, just gazing at that sight - forever.
At one point, Dad walked over to You.  
Mom followed right behind.
Dad removed your blankets. 
You brought your knees up, as You clasped your hands together, looking very happy and relaxed. 
You turned to Mom with a half-smile on your beautiful face, and said, 
"I feel great today ..."
