Attended a beautiful musical program at the Beach Pavilion looking out over the Gulf of Mexico late today. Our church performed "Alleluias by the Sea." Once every four years the choir and orchestra present a compilation of broadway hits, patriotic songs, and spiritual music. The brown pelicans were swoopping above the crowd of about 600 people and the seagulls challenged their own voices with that of the choir. As the sun set on the horizon, the choir sang an old hymn, "How Great Thou Art." As I glanced over to look at my mother the sun had lowered to almost twilight...I thought...here is my beloved mother in her own twilight years...and she is still in this realm - at my side - loving me unconditionally. Yes, How Great Thou Art.
