Beneath Blue Skies...and latest update on Dave

 The LORD’S lovingkindnesses indeed never cease,
            For His compassions never fail.
      They are new every morning;
            Great is Your faithfulness.
      “The LORD is my portion,” says my soul,
            “Therefore I have hope in Him.”
      The LORD is good to those who wait for Him,
            To the person who seeks Him.
... For if He causes grief,
            Then He will have compassion
            According to His abundant lovingkindness.
      For He does not afflict willingly
            Or grieve the sons of men.
 Lam.3:22-25&32-33



Beneath blue skies and green-swept rise
And fall of all we have to bear
Of care and such, the touch of much
Ado becomes the sum of where
We were to where we are; the jar
Of starry deep and mist-kissed morn
On well-worn Way pours out New Day
...a tray heaped with Mercies reborn
As smiles and sighs, hellos, goodbyes
And second tries fill love’s lament
Beneath blue skies, green summer's rise
Will fall to fall, and Season spent

 This morning's update from Karen;


Hi everyone,
I am glad to report another awesome day. He walked again and sat up in his chair, They also took him down for x-rays today to see if we can find out why he can't move his right arm. Ultrasound later in the week.

Also the Dr said that he can have the oxygen mask off. They will keep an eye on him tonight to make sure his level stay high enough when he is sleeping. 
Please keep praying!
and thank-you.
