My mother shared a secret with me today. Inside I knew something

Me and my Mom have gotten very close since my Dad passed in 2005.  I’ve learned more about their life together in the last 6 years then in the previous 44.  I was blessed with good parents, far from perfect! and I thank GOD that I’ve had the opportunity to forgive him of their short comings.  Today,  I think my mom sensed a little sadness in my voice,  because she inquired on  whereabouts of several close friends, MOMs' do that.  So, I shared with her a few things, and within our conversation she shared with me that I had a little brother (A family secret).

She said he died on May 4th, 1968.  One night in a dream she believes they met.  He looked a lot like my Dad. In my mom's gentle voice she said that my grandmother and Dad are taking care of him in heaven.

Could that be why I cherish brotherly friendship so much? I had been asking God for several months the answer.  I feel complete when I have a trusted brother. 1 Samuel 20:16 there’s just something special about it too me.

On the day I go to heaven I believe I will be met by someone I’ve neverseen before, my little brother.
