I Just Feel Like Something Good Is About to Happen
Bill Gaither
VERSE 1
I have learned in all that happens, just to praise Him
For I know He’s working all things for my good
Every tear I shed is worth all the investment
For I know He’ll see me through, He said He would
He has promised eye and ear can hardly fathom
All the things He has in store for those who pray
I just feel like something good is about to happen
And brother, this could be that very day
VERSE 2
Yes I’ve noticed all the bad news in the paper
And it seems like things get bleaker everyday
But for this child of God it makes no difference
It’s bound to get better either way
I’ve never been more thrilled about tomorrow
Sunshine’s always bursting through the skies of gray
I just feel like something good is about to happen
And brother, this could be that very day
CHORUS
I just feel like something good is about to happen
I just feel like something good is on its way
He has promised that He’d open all of Heaven
And, brother, it could happen any day
When God’s people humble themselves and call on Jesus
And they look to Heaven, expecting as they pray
I just feel like something good is about to happen
And, brother, it could be this very day
TAG
I just feel like something good is about to happen
And brother, this could be
Sister, this could be
Brother, this could be that very day

Sunset from friends' condo window ~ Kahana, Maui I am on the sailboat! 🙂 (I am virtually traveling!)
Carole - I know that you are held in the arms' of our Lord.
Everything is okay here and am praying for requests.
They did the CT scan yesterday of an abdominal lump (in connection with the bypass surgery) and we will see what it is. I do not think it is anything serious, but does cause pain if I sit down or get up in a certain way.
I am down 30# and counting. Loose, old skin is icky. I will look like a sharpei by the time I get to my goal weight.
I am back in PT 3 days a week trying to get some strength in my left leg which has been painful and not working properly since the hip replacement two years ago. Where they cut my femur, my body has overgrown a mass of extra bone on the outside. This has caused bursitis in that area and they are treating that as well, but it will never go away. They told me that my goal is being able to stand or walk for longer periods and that I might never be able to ride my bike. 😞 I cannot ride the upright stationary bikes that they have at the PT place, only the recumbent ones.

Jan -- Thank you! Lovely gif!
Lynn -- Thank you for the update. Thirty pounds is wonderful! I have some lose skin -- it is easier to hide lose skin than the extra weight I had.
Lynn, I am praying for your physical therapy.

An Irish Blessing
May you live a long life
Full of gladness and health
With a pocket of gold
As the least of your wealth.
Mat the dreams you hold dearest.
Be those which come true,
The kindness you spread,
Keep returning to you.
May the friendships you make,
Be those which endure,
And all of your grey clouds
be small ones for sure.
And trusting in him
to whom we all pray,
May a song fill your heart.
every step of the way.

Happy Mother's Day!
King James Version (KJV)
12 Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.

Happy Mother's Day to all moms here!

Hoping everyone had a most wonderful Mother's Day! Ike & Melanie got me this beautiful orchid that I have been admiring. It is actually much deeper and almost glows. When I went to the website to see how to care for this (as I have killed two Lucky Bamboo plants, which I thought were murder-proof), I discovered that when it reflowers, thet blooms will be fuschia instead of the glowing blue. Oh well! It is beautiful.
Keeping all prayer requests.
