BUSY DAY!

Good morning to all!

First stop is taking food to the church for the family from my church, after the funeral of their beloved Dad, Uncle, Grandfather, Husband, Friend.

Then to the funeral service at 11:30 at the funeral home, and following he will be buried at the National Cemetery, with full military honors.

After that I have appointment at my doctor for follow-up from epidural at 3:30.

I ask and covet your prayers for:
    1)  Jim
    2)  My best friend's son in law goes to court today for sentencing for a crime he      committed.  My heart goes out to my friend's daughter and two children, who are totally innocent in the whole matter.  Just when you think you have problems, something or someone comes along that is much worse than you are.  May God wrap His arms around this family.
     3) The family burying their loved one.

My current favorite song is "God Is Still Good", and although I can't find a You Tube version that I like, here are the words.......


As I look back on all of my days 
so many times and so many ways 
I have been blessed and all I can say 
is God is still good. 
Sometimes the night brings sorrow and pain 
sometimes the tears flow like the rain 
but through it all He never changed 
God is still good 

vs.2 
There have been times that I've let him down 
made my mistakes but still I have found 
I stumble and fall but through it all 
God is still good. 
Mercy still flows from the palm of His hand 
He will give grace and help me to stand 
although He knows how unworthy I am 
God is still good. 


Chorus 
God is still good when the waves roll high 
God is still good all through the night 
when I've done all I can and I don't understand 
God is still good. 
Clouds of doubt may darken the ways 
but showers of blessings may come any day 
He'll bring me through and I'll stand and say 
God is still good! 

 

Amen.

  3. An awesome song. The words are very meaningful right now, I know. You may always count on my prayers for your prayer requests, Linda. So sad for the loss of a loved one, to death or to prison. Hope your appointment at 3:30 went well. Love & hugs.
