January 18th Friday
Flurries are light this morning, no accumulation
is expected on the ground. It's cold in the house but I was not ready to venture outside to the basement to light the wood
stove until about 10 o'clock. The dog roamed the neighborhood for about a half hour or so this morning, probably delighting
in the neighbor's empty cat food cans. I think the dog has an identity problem. I know he is fed well and really does not
need to raid trashcans, but some dogs just do. While I lit the stove the living room filled with smoke. Sometimes that happens
as I try to load more wood in. Oh, to have modern convenience of a gas furnace.
Last night I did do an anagram from Agnes text of 1-17-08, which I reiterate: “The first person who made cheese couldn't have been trying to make it. It had
to be a silly accident. So we will head to the kitchen and do silly things until we have an accident.”
The anagram, “Peter healed enough by sense of the
divine entity's utility, “Tabitha arise”, Vickie knew once contact window changed to show them in, '...and a little child
shall lead them'.”
I figured I should give at least one explanation
here. Dorcas, for those without a dictionary or bible in front of them, was a Christian woman at Joppa who made clothing for
the poor. Acts 9:36-41 explains the connection. I call this writing a nexus, because one thing leads to another. She
was also known as Tabitha, which connects me via a great grandmother's name. She lived in a log house without modern conveniences
too, so I guess I shouldn't complain, though she could at least put wood inside the house by the fireplace.
Ahhh, the sun came out to let me know He is still
there. The “divine entity's utility...”
Makes you think, or at least it makes ME think,
about what the Divine has in store for us. A little brighter still, burns the sun outside my window. Utility in a number of
senses, I suppose, as we need the light and heat of the sun, but we also need the light of the son, which really defines
the word, utility, “well-being or happiness that is conducive to the happiness and well-being of the greatest number.” Yeah,
I'll second that. Jesus, son of God, is the Ultimate Utility Man. Peter did his fair share too, in raising people up, at least
the Tabitha in Acts.
The sun has entirely broken through the clouds
at this point.
“And a little child shall lead them.” That comes
from Isaiah 11:6, where the entire verse reads, “The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, The leopard shall lie down with
the young goat, The calf and the young lion and the fatling together; And a little child shall lead them.”
I have an unusual hobby in where I cut words from
the newspapers or magazines and put them into sentences sometimes, and other times I make forms and cover them with the words.
Realizing a picture is worth a thousand words...
and the bones behind it
I really do like the next day or so of Spot the Frog and Agnes.
Toons REALLY are cool. A lot of the synchronicity occurs when I type a journal
and the TV is on, often using the same words at the same time.Part of today’s Agnes was used for my anagram today:
“We start by removing anything with no cheesnicity.”
My anagram:
“We begin to answer the mighty synchronicity in a tv.”
