When I was 4 I was visiting with my great-grandmother. She asked me to make her hair pretty because she was “going home”.

Before I could grab the mirror to show her the style, my grandma grabbed me, took me into the kitchen, and explained that my great grandmother had passed away while I was doing her hair.

The experience taught me so much about my family as well as the type of person I wanted to be as an adult. Most would be weirded out but I felt chosen by God. I felt encouraged that I could be trusted to get someone ready to meet their Creator.
