A touching moment! The lady in the middle of the front row is from Romania. She had been visiting her daughter and stayed with us quite some time. We came to love her and so did she. Now it's time for her to go back. After the morning service she asked to have a picture taken with a group of us as large as possible. And here we are in front of the entrance of our meeting hall. All of us are deeply moved. Tears run from most eyes, hers especially! Such occasions tell us how transitory all things in this life are, and at the same time point to the blessed reunion we have before us with our Lord in the midst! Then we, redeemed by His precious blood, will enjoy His presence, and that of one another, and share His glory for ever. Alleluia!
