A good evening.

Caspian.
Taking photos of Caspian.
Listening to Caspian munch his dinner.
Watching horses in the field.
Chatting with Gracin.
Beautiful sunset.
Windows down on the way home with the ac running.
George Winston on the cd player.

A good evening.

Changing shadows

Trust thou thy joys in keeping of the Power
Who holds these changing shadows in His hand;
Believe and live, and know that hour by hour
Will ripple newer beauty to thy strand.

Thomas Wentworth Higginson

Work

It is our best work that He wants, not the dregs of our exhaustion. I think He must prefer quality over quantity.

Hold fast to what is good

No I don't want to battle from the beginning to end
I don't want to cycle and recycle revenge
I don't want to follow death and all of his friends...
from the new Coldplay song Death and His Friends

Let love be genuine. Abhor what is evil; hold fast to what is good.
Romans 12:9

He will give us light and strength

Let us then think only of the present, and not even permit our minds to wander with curiosity into the future. This future is not yet ours; perhaps it never will be.

It is exposing ourselves to temptation to wish to anticipate God, and to prepare ourselves for things which He may not destine for us. If such things should come to pass, He will give us light and strength according to the need.

Why should we desire to meet difficulties prematurely, when we have neither strength nor light as yet provided for them? Let us give heed to the present, whose duties are pressing; it is fidelity to the present which prepares us for fidelity in the future.

Sweetly Broken

To the cross I look, to the cross I cling
Of its suffering I do drink
Of its work I do sing

For on it my Savior both bruised and crushed
Showed that God is love
And God is just

Chorus:
At the cross You beckon me
You draw me gently to my knees, and I am
Lost for words, so lost in love,
I'm sweetly broken, wholly surrendered

What a priceless gift, undeserved life
Have I been given
Through Christ crucified

You've called me out of death
You've called me into life
And I was under Your wrath
Now through the cross I'm reconciled

In awe of the cross I must confess
How wondrous Your redeeming love and
How great is Your faithfulness

Jeremy Riddle -
From the album Sweetly Broken

Liberty and Life

"We preferred to leave them with liberty and life because, in Colombia, we prefer life over death," he said.
