The last couple of months I have had several friends that have had babies. It is such a happy and joyous occasion to celebrate these new lives. Today on the other hand, we had the joy of celebrating a dear lady's life of over 90 years. Betty however, was not there to join us as she is now enjoying her new life in heaven. She had such a beautiful testimony of a life lived for God. What a challenge to live one's life 100% sold out to God. Betty was a Mother of a missionary who has been on the mission field for over 40 years. To be able to release your children and grandchildren to the Lord to go overseas for most of their life is not easy. As her daughter just went back to the mission field Betty reassured her that she would be o.k., she was in God's hands just as her daughter is in God's hand. Betty assured her daughter that even if they didn't see each other again down here on earth, they would enjoy their reunion in heaven. Well, done thou good and faithful servant!

A Celebration of A Life
