Do It Again!
Mar 24th
hyhhrtyrtyhgDo It Again!
Gen.8:22 (my yard…spring is right on time)
G.K.Chesterton (1874-1936) – The prince of paradox.
“Parts of God’s infinite beauty is manifested in a little child in their immense capacity to exalt in the monotonous.”
A child finds a game they really enjoy, they say, “Do it again, Do it again!”
Perhaps God is strong enough to be able to exult in monotony?
Is it possible that God says every morning, “do it again, do it again” to the sun? (every evening/ to the moon?)
Maybe it’s not automatic necessity that makes all Daises alike. It may be that God makes every daisy separately, but has never gotten tired of making them.
Reputation in Nature may not be a mere reoccurrence, it may be a theatrical encore!!!
A child can do this, God can do this, can you? [Holy, holy, holy, over/over]
Ps.104:1-13 – Every part of creation is the work of God.
Q: Do you have the ability, when you look at the natural world, to see God behind everything?
Q: Are there things that prevent you from seeing as the Psalmist?
Q: Did you see God behind anything this morning? (ask)
{Simply observe trees, grass, stones, colors, sky…}
A leaf isn’t green by necessity; God tells it to be.
Practice seeing the world this way!
Prayer: May we grow to the place of exulting in the monotonous. It Again!

Gen.8:22 “While the earth remains, Seedtime and harvest, Cold and heat, Winter and summer, And day and night Shall not cease.”
Monday I finally started working in my yard after a wet winter. I love spring. My yard is starting to go off with colors again…just as God promised in Genesis.
G.K.Chesterton (1874-1936) known as the prince of paradox said, “Parts of God’s infinite beauty is manifested in a little child in their immense capacity to exalt in the monotonous.” When a child finds a game they really enjoy, they say, “Do it again, Do it again!” Perhaps God is strong enough to be able to exult in monotony? He does enjoy those trippy 6-winged creatures to sing, “Holy, holy, holy” over & over & over again. (Rev.4:8)
Chesterton asks, “Is it possible that God says every morning, “do it again, do it again” to the sun? And every evening, “do it again, do it again” to the moon?

A child can do this, God can do this, can you? Q: Do you have the ability, when you look at the natural world, to see God behind everything? Q: Are there things that prevent you from seeing as the Psalmist? Q: Did you see God behind anything you witnessed this morning? Simply observe trees, grass, stones, colors, or the sky. Practice seeing the world this way! May we grow to the place of exulting in the monotonous.
Where’s Jonah?
Mar 20th
One of my fav shots in Israel this trip. This was in Jaffa (where Jonah fled from God to Tarshish). Me & my tripod went out & took some night pics…didn’t see Jonah.
No Starbucks
Mar 20th
Ok, so we couldn’t find a Starbucks in Jordan yet, so we stopped right off the side of their freeway & had some great Turkish coffee. Real thick, real strong, & by the way…don’t drink the last gulp…all the grounds are in the bottom.
Great memories.
