Jesus promises us that to be out of the body is to be in the presence with the Lord. Your mother was a wonderful woman. She will be greatly missed by her family. I had wonderful memories of her. I thank God for her and the times that we all shared together. She’s gone ahead of us, and we will all be reunited again with our Lord and Savior. God counts our tears, every one of them, and he has a plan and a purpose for them. I’m praying for the family. I’m sorry for your loss. God bless you all.
