Delayed this time by a power cut! The storm last night has blown trees down on the power lines, leaving Bute and Cowal without power for half of today. A little reminder of how vulnerable we are to a little weather.
At work- no computers, no phones, no mobile telephones (masts down too.) If you are vulnerable, no stair lifts, no e-care, no anti-pressure beds, no hot food, no heating. Scary really, just how dependent we are on something so artificial. Well done Dave and the boys for getting it back on in record time…
But back to the matter in hand- Psalm 148, the wonder of it all…
Look carefully at this picture. At first all black- but when you look again…
5 Let them praise the name of the LORD,
for at his command they were created,
6 and he established them for ever and ever—
he issued a decree that will never pass away.
Light waves falling
.
Some blazing hot
The noon we circle round
Some a warm reflection
Smiling in the night sky
Some a tender starlight flicker
Almost unnoticed
.
All of it made-
Not manufactured
Crafted-
Not mass produced
.
Fractals of the infinite
Particles of the Divine
Making a prism of my soul
this fragile tent
