Murmurations in Paradise

Its been something of a medical week - new glasses - xray - injections - longstanding pain in shoulder gone - what does it all mean - what will xrays show.  Xray technician handsome young lad with Scottish accent.  My favourite accent of all time.  He chatted to me about it all, not rushing me through the system, which my elderly self appreciated.   Not got out on the work so far this week... apart from some magazine route calls,  but hope to go out with Jean tomorrow.

Today I must do a big shop.

Captain Butterfly carries tirelessly on.  He has now got some murmurations - on still and on video. Our own local starling family sometimes murmur across the Green in front of our windows, but these are an Arundel murmur - and at that beautiful twilight "Empire of Light" hour too.

One of those moments when you see the Paradise earth. Satan has done his best to get us to ruin it, but you can still see paradise everywhere.

I have been talking to a very sick internet friend.  On top of coping with a frightening and debilitating illness, he now seems to be having a lot of family troubles. Just at the moment he is least able to cope with them.

I am hoping he might let his local JW congregation give him the information he so urgently needs.   As 2 Timothy 3:16 tells us: "All Scripture is inspired of God and beneficial for teaching, for reproving, for setting things straight, for disciplining in righteousness,"

It is all inspired by our Creator, and it will set everything straight, IF we pay attention and apply what we learn.  It teaches us how to deal with the problems that beset us now, in the right and productive way.  And, above all, it tells us of our sure rescue - so close now.
