Begin Another 10

Been a while since the last post. The Nation's Bicentennial came and went. Do people still blog these days? 2020 started somewhat surreptitiously, for me at least. Not much updates by way of photos or quotes, and the last 10 years in review went by a lot more quickly than the decade that preceded it. Must be the age thing. Who knows? Till the next one once these aching joints get better.

Being

Amidst the chatter of orders, plans, courses of action and pixel uniforms, I find an unlikely place where I discover the process of simply being with God.

Pause

How long has it been? In between Single Origin Espressos and Filters, there's little time for any sort of down tempo Modellbau. But I do hope to catch up with some craft-work this year end. Soon.

Not since 1869

In a human capital based economy, one'd be hard pressed to even think about "Praying for rain." But that's exactly what we need now. Granted, you see a surreal blossoming phenomena as you drive along the public works tended botany, but it has an unsettling quiet-before-the-storm feeling.

Four years is a long time. Blomkamp's earlier "from-the-ashes-of-HALO" 09' summer sleeper hit brought hope back to Science Fiction filled with allegory and social commentary, so August 15th could come a little sooner :)

Just Checking In

Been a while since the last post. Just warming up. Been slightly less verbose of late. It must be the age thing catching up.

Kernel

"Very truly I tell you, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds." John 12:24
It is amazing the analogy Jesus used to describe dying to self - an act that defies logic, but yet holds the key to life eternal. What's more amazing is that Christ came to be amongst us, died as a man and rose again on the third day and ascended to heaven, that all may receive salvation-bringing to light the many parallels evident in the grain of wheat analog. As we approach Easter, I'm humbled by what my Saviour did what He did for me 2000 years back at Calvary.
