Happy Caturday to YOU, too, Tiapam and everyone!

I got this in my email this morning, and it woke me up! Wait ‘til you hear this little boy (8 years old) playing a tribute to Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass on his trumpet.

His name is Geoffrey Gallente and he is incredibly GOOD!!

Here he is playing “It is well with my soul”:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aFhLsp2lMuY

When peace, like a river, attendeth my way,
When sorrows like sea billows roll;
Whatever my lot, Thou has taught me to say,
It is well, it is well, with my soul.

Refrain

It is well, with my soul,
It is well, with my soul,
It is well, it is well, with my soul.

Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come,
Let this blest assurance control,
That Christ has regarded my helpless estate,
And hath shed His own blood for my soul.

Refrain

My sin, oh, the bliss of this glorious thought!
My sin, not in part but the whole,
Is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more,
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul!

Refrain

For me, be it Christ, be it Christ hence to live:
If Jordan above me shall roll,
No pang shall be mine, for in death as in life
Thou wilt whisper Thy peace to my soul.

Refrain

But, Lord, ‘tis for Thee, for Thy coming we wait,
The sky, not the grave, is our goal;
Oh trump of the angel! Oh voice of the Lord!
Blessèd hope, blessèd rest of my soul!

Refrain

And Lord, haste the day when my faith shall be sight,
The clouds be rolled back as a scroll;
The trump shall resound, and the Lord shall descend,
Even so, it is well with my soul.

Refrain

I just learned something about video’s not playing sometimes.
The first time I played Frank’s song, it was perfect and after I posted it, I checked it again to see is all was okay. The video would start and as soon as the advertisement on the right started moving, it messed up the video, plus I couldn’t get the back button to work. When the moving video stopped, the video started playing again. And this happened over and over.

[luvie]

Heehee....too much birthday celebratin’? :)

[yorkie]

You probably don't have a 'hangover',
You just ate too much pizza!
(I asked you to share with me, you know!
But, nooooooo. You ate it ALL yourself!)

HAPPY CATURDAY, Ms. Bloaded!
LOL! ((((HUGS))))

[yorkie]

I wonder how they got all those cats up there for the photo? (Guess it was a ‘CATurday’ contest shoot!) LOL!

[yorkie]

Are the videos I posted this morning not working, JC?

[tiapam]

"You KNOW I'm gonna relax and enjoy it! :)"

[yorkie]

That is SO true, Dubya. Sniff, sniff.

Thank you for posting it. I hope you are feeling better each day! Happy CATurday to you!

to be named ... a son of encouragement is a praise. How precious to be know for encouragement. Too inspire or give inspiration, hearten, lift up, support, to build confidence, all compassionate.

Father, help me to be encouraging and inspiring to those around me and with whom I come in contact, daily as I go about, amen.

Compassionate is the LORD. He shares in our suffering, he gives aid, sympathy, mercy; Thank thee LORD for thy compassion on thy children. We are encouraged by His Word. Praise the LORD!
