I just got a blast from the past. A few weeks ago, Msdrby and the kids went to a birthday party at the Frontiers Of Flight museum down at Love Field in Dallas.

I saw this picture just now, and sat straight up! It's odd seeing a plane I've pumped thousands of gallons of fuel into hangin in a museum as an artifact.

The modified Texas flag on the tail was only used for aircraft assigned to Reese AFB. Another image confirmed what I thought the tail numbr to be.

[Professional Engineer]

Oh, and this other thing was there too. All burnt up looking. Couldn't have cost much.

Earthworms And Fruit

READ: Job 37:14-19

Every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be refused. —1 Timothy 4:4

Have you ever wondered why God made a particular creature, like mosquitos or snakes? I’ve often wondered about earthworms. Why did God form such creepy crawlers?

Actually, worms have an indispensable function to fulfill. Amy Stuart, in her book The Earth Moved: On The Remarkable Achievements of Earthworms tells us that in an average acre of ground there are countless earthworms continually breaking up the soil. Their silent and invisible activity is absolutely essential—no worms, no vegetation.

What, then, can we learn from earthworms? Not only in nature but also in our lives there are invisible forces at work. There is the silent and unseen work of prayer by those who are concerned about our well-being. There is the work of our own spiritual discipline, as we pray and meditate on God’s Word. And there is the vital work of the Holy Spirit, breaking up the clogged soil of our souls and producing in us the Christlike fruit of “love, joy, peace, longsuffering . . .” (Galatians 5:22-23).

In our lives and in our world, God has ordained unseen influences that bear fruit. Whether it’s the lowly earthworm or the crown of God’s creation—the human race—there is so much more at work than meets the eye. —Vernon C Grounds

All things bright and beautiful,
All creatures great and small,
All things wise and wonderful,
The Lord God made them all.  —Alexander

God’s unseen work in our hearts produces fruit in our lives.

Bible in One Year:   2 Chronicles 1-3; John 10:1-23

Where's flag when you need one.
