Miriam has moved into her new home. Jesus said he had gone on before to prepare a place so that where he is, Miriam can be also. She will not have any more falls, broken bones, headaches, or pain. She is in the presence of God, rejoicing in God’s heavenly garden, where the flowers must be in full bloom all year. Miriam was very strong in her faith and loved the Lord. The time for Miriam’s departure came on Saturday. She fought the good fight; she finished the race and kept the faith.
