It is well....

Monday mornings i work "desk duty" at Weichert Realtors.


This morning...was as usual...i go in, turn the lights on, get a cup of tea and look for a radio station (the local Christian station--which for some reason doesn't come in very well in the building)
As i was struggling this morning to get rid of the static I started singing...the receptionist that used to work with me...well.. we would always sing together before the office opened.

Ms Dorothea (our retired receptioninst) is a lovely lady. She retired from our office a couple of times. ....we all love her so much we were always trying to lure her our of retirement...The last time she left i believe she was in her late 80's.


Anyway...I sang this morning (without her) and thought...I just have to give her a call. Two hours later an agent walked by and said did you hear the news?


Yes....... my Ms Dorothea has gone to be with the Lord. I was so grateful that i'd had that special time "with" her"singing" this morning....funny how those things work...we sure do have an AWESOME GOD!


Below (youtube) was "our" song...bet it's one your favorite too!


(slight disclaimer...ok...its not Ms. Dorothea & I singing)

  4. Can you imagine the heavenly choir Dorothea is now part of..? What a gift to have known this lady and what a gift to know she's with the Lord now.

    Blessed be the name of the Lord! :o)
