My DH John and I will pray for your health, and for you internet problems, too.
We are 71 and 69, so are seeing more doctoors than friends these days, too!

I've just had rotator cuff surgery (Right arm, so it's especially difficult, and painful)
I have a pessimistic surgeon who's told us I won't "have a good result"
Well, the Lord and I will just see about that! :)

That first night after surgery I slept very little because of the pain, so I spent hours talking with the Lord---I had the strongest impession that a huge word was being "written" on the ceiling--the word was TRUST.....and I do--in everything I want to be in His Presence!  I know the safest place of all is to be in the center of His Will.

We have a Barbara Johnson perpetual (flip-type) calendar, and I loved today's message. 
Here's the 4/10 thought, from Barbara Johnson:

When God permits His children to go through the furnace experiences of our lives,
He keeps His eye on the clock--and His hand on the thermostat 

All this reminds me of one of the Statler Brothers' songs:

(Fourth Man in the Fire) 

This is an early one:I've never seen them so young!
Johnny Cash introduces them.  I don't think, though, that they are brothers, as Johnny says--just friends who grew up together, and loved to sing.

Jesus walked in that fire with Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego  ,
and He walks with us, too, Marilyn!

SOON we'll all give each other joyful "Kingdom hugs"-- Keep looking UP!  :)

In His Love,
YSIC, Jan in AZ
