A big thank you to Flights of Fantasy Image Shoppe for the moving images! Today crusing through the galaxy, on the last watch, the captain found a shining star.

The planet is:
It’s just indifferent I’d say.  (E)
When words are left unspoken because you fear the outcome of a situation.

where the author asks "What if these words could change everything right away?"

What do you think? Can words change everything right away?

I think words have a lot of power. They have the power to build and the power to destroy. They have the power to fly and to swim. They have the power to walk and to run. They have to power to heal and the power to kill. They have tremendous power. I try to choose my words carefully and if I have nothing good to say I would prefer to say nothing. Words have tremendous power.

I have loved you with an everlasting love,
I have drawn you with unfailing kindness." Jer. 31:3

How is this true for you today?"

It is true for me because I am still above the dirt. I look back on my life each day and realize the accidents that I have been in and walked away from when in fact they should have killed me. I consider all the illnesses that I have had, including a 90% blockage of the left aorta AKA "the widowmaker" and walked away. I consider the overdoses I have taken of alcohol and drugs and walked away. I've had my kidney on the verge of rupturing and doctors scratching their heads wondering why I wasn't dead. I walked away. God has blessed me tremendously. Now I am a seminary student making good grades. He continues to bless me.

From your morning stop at the outback outpost of Manguri, you’ll venture into the weird and wonderful opal mining township of Coober Pedy, where more than half of the residents live underground. Here, you’ll enjoy a day of discovery, and a gourmet lunch in the most unique of locations: underground. Dinner is served back on the train where you can enjoy a nightcap as your journey continues.

We'e going to get dirty today. But maybe we'll score an opal.

Let your imagination take you wherever.

Even though I am traveling the Outback of Australia my mind is still firmly here at home. I love my jobs and dedicate a lot of my time to them. Regardless where I roam my mind is on work and school.

Opal mining, on the other hand, could take my mind completely off of those things. There be money in opals and I like money. In fact, I just bought a jewel of sorts last night. I bought a guitar off of a friend. He has a ukulele that I am also going to try to buy. Then my project will be learning to play them. I want to play them for chapel. My goals are simple. I want to keep them that way.

Blog City image small "Prompt: Different people keep the world moving. Use this in your Blog entry today."

I don't know that I totally agree with that. I believe different people can change the world but I don't believe they keep it moving. I believe one Person keeps the world moving and that is Jesus Christ.
