"Another strange thing ..what has happened to my relatively uneventful life? :)"


 
Hello 5doves!!
 
Well nothing strange has happened to me since my 'cross pendant' incident (5doves letter Aug. 28th -- I added the link to this letter if you wish to read it)...until Dec. 4;  I rarely post so I didn't expect to be writing another letter soooo soon.

I followed up on this Dec 4th 'incident' today, Saturday, when I finally had some time...I'd much appreciate you sharing any thoughts/insights you may have concerning this -- G-d may put something in your heart.
 
Dec 4th, in the morning, I was up cleaning my bathroom...I suddenly was startled by the realization that I was singing...I was startled by hearing my own voice!  I have never had that happen before...I don't routinely sing at home...haven't for years due to a vocal cord injury - I wasn't thinking about singing, I was thinking about cleaning my bathroom ...ALL OF A SUDDEN I was singing!  And the song was one I haven't sung or even heard for over thirty years.  I was singing  "I'll be somewhere listening, I'll be somewhere listening, I'll be somewhere listening for my name". 
 
I recalled the song from my childhood...and I don't remember any more words..so I decided when the weekend arrived I'd search for the rest of the words.  I plugged the entire sentence into the AOL search field Saturday AM and this is what came up first on the list:
 
I'll Be Somewhere Listening


When He calls my name, I will answer,
When He calls my name I will hear him,
When He calls my name, I will answer,
I'll be somewhere listening for my name.

I'll be somewhere listening,
I'll be somewhere listening,
I'll be somewhere listening for my name.
I'll be somewhere listening,
I'll be somewhere listening,
I'll be somewhere listening for my name.

If my heart is right when He calls me,
If my heart is right I will answer,
If my heart is right when He calls me,
I'll be somewhere working for my Lord.

I'll be somewhere working,
I'll be somewhere working,
I'll be somewhere working for my Lord.
I'll be somewhere working,
I'll be somewhere working,
I'll be somewhere working for my Lord.

If you look for me and can't find me,
If you look for me and can't find me,
If you look for me and can't find me,
I'll be somewhere in the Rapture with my Lord.

I'll be somewhere in the Rapture,
I'll be somewhere in the Rapture,
I'll be somewhere in the Rapture with my Lord.
I'll be somewhere in the Rapture,
I'll be somewhere in the Rapture,
I'll be somewhere in the Rapture with my Lord.
 
My last beloved uncle (out of five) died that night, Dec 4th...I didn't find out until my mom called me Wednesday.  Uncle Wayne believed in the Lord and was looking forward to Heaven...his 'name was called' that night. 
 
I too am much appreciative of this site!  Thank you John!
