I am praying for all during this time. I am reminded of II Timothy 4:7-8 "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Finally there is laid up for me the crown of righteous, which the Lord, the righteous Judge will give to me on that Day and not to me only but also to all who have loved his appearing." There is a party in Heaven around the Throne of God!! Lets all get ready to join in one day!! Love to all of you!!!
