How do you write your blog?


Do you think it all out before-hand with a topic all straight in your mind? Or do you do what I do, just plunge in and hope for the best? The advantage with my way is that anything can pop up and be the topic of the day. Thinking it all out first could cramp your style. Your topic could turn out to be too narrow and stunted. Of course by contrast mine could ramble. whatever I am to say I intend to include one of my photos for added interest. Anyway what is the purpose of a blog? Are we all capable of holding the interest of people across the world? Maybe not too many of them but if we brighten the day of a few it is worthwhile holding out a hand of friendship. Often I speak about God and my greatest desire is to help someone, somewhere to find God through Jesus. My photos show what the God of creation does. I pray you will come closer to him. Here is a poem I wrote about God's greatness and where you can read about why I wrote it.


God the Infinite dwells with me,
Vaster than the ocean,
Deeper than the sea.

God the almighty dwells with me
Stronger than the tempest
Fiercer than tsunami

God the all-seeing, has me in his care,
Watches all around me,
Seeing everywhere.

God the all-knowing one,
Knows each step I take,
Watches o'er my progress,
Sleeping or awake

Dancing light unseen, unseeable.
Moving like the wind from where to where.
God my Redeemer permeating everything,
In him we live and move and are.

Music of the spheres sing his praise,
Thunder clap, volcano spout, mighty sea roar
All dwarfed by His magnificence.

Far too wonderful to be trapped in a poem God my Creator

Infinite God

Why do many disasters happen?

I have written in previous posts about disasters. In the case of Concorde, decisions by people, plus other factors were directly to blame for the event.  In the case of the Penlee disaster it may have been avoided if someone had made a better choice in the time beforehand and as a consequence brave men and the ship's crew and the captain and his family died. 9/11 was certainly the result of wicked men committing a terrorist act, but even in this there was heroism notably by another Cornish man, Rick Rescorla who helped many to safety and left it too late to help himself.  In situations like this we see what the human spirit is capable of both good and evil. What of disasters that come on people because of the earth restless movement of tectonic plates.  Often people live near volcanoes because the land is rich and fertile and they have the chance of a better life there when the volcano is resting.  We cannot blame them for that but sometimes people become complacent...

Optimism conquering experience

I watched The Detectorists tonight. I have not watched it before. It is about a group of people who use detecting equipment to discover old coins and other things of archeological interest. This was the last in the series and had a bitter sweet feel to it.  One of the main characters asked,"Why do we do it?" and the other replied,"This is the nearest you will ever get to time travel." You have to be an optimist to do metal detecting.  There is always the attraction of making a big find or an important discovery.  Among all the tin cans and coat hangers found there is the hope of a Saxon hoard, or Roman gold. Optimism keeps them going.

Nostalgia

Nostalgia is usually a sudden pleasant memory triggered by a present stimulus.  The other day I opened a new bottle of bath creme which immediately sent me back to my youth.  The scent was described as lilac but to me it was the scent of violets and especially reminded me of the violet flavoured sweets we sometimes had.  I think my brother once used some to try to disguise that he had been smoking! Not a good move, whoever heard of a teenage boy wanting to smell of violets.  Nostalgia is usually a pleasant but maybe bitter-sweet thing. The smell of Astral soap always reminds me of a childhood holiday at my uncle's farmhouse.  Sometimes it is not possible to know why these triggers happen.  Do you often have nostalgic moments?
