And I Think to Myself...

(Another post from the past - January 07)

...WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD!!!

Hey, lying in bed last Monday morning, that's what I heard... Louis Armstrong singing "What a Wonderful World".

And then I got thinking about how I was feeling..... SATISFIED!!.... I'd achieved this weekend what I'd set out to achieve. But in a way, I was starting to feel a bit lost, with nothing pressing to do. And then I got thinking again about how God felt when He finished creating the world....

"Then God saw everything He had made, and INDEED it was very good. So the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
"Thus the heavens and the earth, and all the hosts of them, were FINISHED.
"And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done. Then God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it He rested from all His work which God had created and made."
(Genesis 1:31-2:3, NKJ)

So it occurred to me, I was feeling God's feelings of satisfaction at a job well done. And now?? REST!!!

And then I read my Psalms and I was up to Psalm 103......

"Bless the Lord, O my soul; and all that is within me, bless His holy name!
Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits." (v1-2)

So there ya' go!! Boy, it feel strange though!!

Anyhow, all I can say is "REJOICE!!!"

Now, FAST-FORWARD two years and two months... TODAY!!

How truly amazing the Lord is!! I am so thrilled that He has broadened my horizons, to meet many wonderful people from all around the world.

And now, when "I think to myself, what a wonderful world", it takes on a brand new meaning!!

Thank you my friends for make this world such a wonderful place!!
