Thank you to Sally at Smiling Sally for hosting Blue Monday.
This is a group
with no "blues".
We thank God for the miracle
that is each man.
Can you imagine the beauty
they will see in every blue sky
the rest of their days?

This was such a bright surprise this cloudy Monday---I've linked it at Lawn Tea.

What a sweet and original post. They showed the world one big miracle that God does answer prayer. I hope they can use this to further God's word. I think they will. Have a great day.

Hi Beverly, yes, we know God's miracles do happen with the help of many dedicated people. The Miracle is that they were still alive after 17 days of the world not knowing if they lived or died. Blue skies are a blessing to us all but more so for these survivors.
Have a happy day my dear friend,
Jeanne

Beverly, you do the nicest things in such a clever way. This is a wonderful post and tribute to these fine men. A beautiful entry for Blue Monday.

Yea! This is the best story ever, and it is a miracle story of the highest order!
Yes, I think these miners and their families are changed forever as is everyone who watched and waited and worked to free them!
The Lord is good. His mercy is everlasting. And His truth endureth to all generations!
Happy Blue Monday...
XO,
Sheila :-)

Excellent tribute to those men...it was like the Earth gave birth to them a second time. Just the most amazing story of the year...such unwavering faith!

Wasn't this a happy story? None of us thought that they'd ever survive. God answers prayers.
Happy Blue Monday, Beverly.

I'm sure they will never take life for granted again! I'm so thankful they all returned to their families - and the rest of their lives. I just hope they can have 'normal' lives and enjoy the beauty of each day the way God sends it their way.

Oh yes, this news was the great in recent days. Miracles can happen in any moment for anyone. On the plus side, I was reading your notes with a big pleasure as usual. No wonder sweet comments always come from sweet ones -like you:) And, appreciate that how careful readers I've got -like you:) Its been long to say the colors of my eyes, mine are like Julia Roberts's (small) but a mixture of gray and dark blue. The glass-blue beautiful eyes seen on my post are of my friend Monia's from Rome, not mine:) She and others were so sympathetic to try local traditional dresses and esp hats. Lots of fun moments, unforgettable memories and interesting trip... Hope you are having a bright day in NC, much ♥♥♥

Loved this post, Beverly. The fight to save the lives of the miners drew our disconnected world together for a while. The rescue was truly a miracle.
