The death of Gods saints can be a beautiful thing. I am glad your mother was able to talk to you just before she died. <br /><br />My own mother began to smile and reach up to heaven. <br />My sister said, "Mother are you seeing Heavenly visions?"<br />Mother said, "Yes. Yes I am."<br />"What do you see?" my sister asked.<br />Mother opened her mouth to tell us, but all that came out was gibberish. So we felt she was not allowed to tell us. Still she continued to smile and reach up to heaven. And that evening as the family gathered around her bed we held hands and sang (As we had done the past few nights, knowing her time had come.) During our final song of the Lord's prayer one of us noticed that Mother was singing right along with us.<br />All who lived in the same state, and those of us who had been able to travel out when were were told she had three days to live. All of us were there in my parents home surrounding her bed when she died soon after we had sung the Lord's Prayer together.<br /><br />And it was a blessing as we knew where she went. And we know we will see her again. Praise Jesus.Story and Logic Media Grouphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13317731231950753140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5467734878469527462.post-69668337431194608392013-05-12T16:49:18.085-05:002013-05-12T16:49:18.085-05:00Steve, this is so lovely.

My grandfather said similar things as he passed away. He was also a believer in the Lord. How lovely for her to care for each of you as she went away. What a wonderful mother you had!Lou Ann Keiserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02684047509152182217noreply@blogger.com
