Well I did do a bit of peeking on my phone, but I feel refreshed and I got a lot of tidying done. Now I'm back with renewed energy. Too much of anything leaves you jaded. My flat needs several years off my computer to make any real difference!! It's strange how we cling on to things that we never use. Obviously it is good to have pictures of our past and little drawings our children did, but do not think that you can hold on to the past, you cannot. No matter how you try it is past and gone. By all means use the past to inform the present. Remember the things you used to worry about which never happened, what a waste of energy! So now you can put your worries into perspective and treat them as imposters who will never come home to roost. If you are trusting in Jesus there are no worries than can touch you, you are safe in His keeping. But you do have to keep reminding yourself of that fact or the worries will creep up and cloud your vision. I love you dear reader!
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...
