(If I could have the opportunity to talk to her on the phone.) Miss you so much. I love you Mum. I long for the day I will see you again. I write with falling tears & a heart that aches to see your face. To speak with you again will be memorable as you will be awoken from sleep when this world is returned to it's original state as promised by Jesus words: You will be with me in Paradise. Of course the original paradise was on Earth 🌎. So what a wonderful time that will be. And to see true justice prevail & seeing the fulfilment of John 5:28, 29 & Revelation 21:4. True promises, not mere failed & empty words. But, promises that will most certainly come true. Isaiah 55:10, 11.
