Am recovering from a rather vicious illness characterized by fever, harsh cough and fatigue. Still hawking up phlegm and tired. Thank God that those who put their trust in Christ can eventually discard these bodies and get brand new ones. ( 1 Corinthians 15:50-54)
The family with whom I live recently purchased nine little chicks. Astonishing how quickly they grow, with measurable progress day by day. They have already outgrown their original quarters and are in one three times as large. What a contrast to the slowness of human development. Perhaps one reason for this is the need for humans to learn how to parent their children. Another is how much more a human needs to know than a chick.
Another man whom I knew decades ago has passed away. I spoke to Cliff several years ago, and like Paul in Romans 15, he was on his way to Spain. We had a lot of fun in the old days, when he (temporarily) served as my chauffeur. May the Lord Jesus receive him into His heavenly kingdom. ( 2 Timothy 4:18) Cliff was only a year or two older than I am. As the old adage says, "Only what is done for Christ will last."
