Jesus This and Jesus That

Did I tell you about going to spend a day with Mrs. Henderson? Well there’s not a lot to say other than, it was a lovely day. She is the Mother of Matsy, and they, along with Mr. H, Attend my church. I went over to spend the day with her, i.e. use their free internet, and we had some good talks about God. She lent me a book called “23 Minutes in Hell” Which I recommend if you are either into theology, interested in the supernatural, or find yourself lacking interest in eternal damnation. I’ll give you a peek. The book is about one mans account of how one night God sent him to Hell for 23 minutes. The first 40 pages or so are a detailed account of his experience and a bit of biography, which gives the reading an understanding of where this logical thinking, well organized, none charismatic individual is coming from. The best part is after the description when he says. “You may not believe me, if I were you I would be very sceptical too, but that doesn’t matter.” The next 100 pages are all based on biblical references as he makes the point of highlighting what the Bible has to say, even if you don’t believe him. It’s a good read, well done, give her a look.

That night I stayed for a lovely dinner with Mrs. H, Matsy and Alex. Free food tastes so good. Although some of you are thinking how much you appreciate a meal after you know the time it took you to prepare it. Much like how I enjoyed the berry’s I picked in my back yard. Food is good, Amen.

Ecclesiastes 3:14 Is the 3rd law of thermodynamics is it not?

Ecclesiastes 8: 5-6 There is a proper time for everything.

Ecclesiastes 8:1617 man cannot discover the work which has been done under the sun.

I flick back through the pages of my journal of July’s events and find words like sickness, anxiety, home sick, glory, faith, and independence. It is not always easy to determine what hurts and troubles we build for ourselves and those we have no choice in, but maintaining focus and not giving up are cliché words I have a hard time avoiding.
