These are the Royal Azaleas that blooms in the mountain. 

They bloom along the waterside. Loneliness, which gets deeper in the forest, 

in the middle of nowhere, is enough to help it forget the pain of putting down

its roots between the rough rocks.

The warm spring sun shines upon them and the turbulent valley stream is pouring

down from the heavy rain last night.

When the pink flowers, made through agony are bending over the water,

the valley is in perfect harmony with them.

The 40 plus 10 days prayer meeting is approaching the final stage. 

Let’s pray with faith even though we’re in a tough situation and be happy

in the Lord who will give us the answer to our prayers.
