I was singing today.
At the hospital.
Went to visit John Graham. He has not been well. In the midst of struggles for breath he has been thinking. About songs and scriptures. He has memorized a number of songs. But, you can’t always remember every verse in the midst of catching your breath!
He was thinking of the song, "How Great Thou Art". I started singing and he lay back. Closed his eyes. Lay back and listened. Someone else came in for a moment — they had just come to visit . As I finished he opened his eyes with a slight smile on his lips.
I hope when I reach his age (I’m planning on living to 100 or dying in the attempt — John is 94) I’ll be able to sit back and listen to the songs of faith.
God is good, all the time. And all the time, God is good.
