The Lord has always known this wonderful Christian lady, and when she arrived in heaven, He said, ” welcome, my good and faithful servant.”
Psalm 34:1 I will bless the Lord at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
Oh, what a blessing to dwell in the house of the Lord until the end and continue to worship him in spirit and truth. Pray cv for the family! So nice to see Mrs. Bush singing in the choir annual on my last visit.
