When the Rains Came

Dale offers the prompt “when the rains came” for this week’s Cosmic Photo Prompt.

Morning Storm — Overflowing clouds send rain

After reading her fortune at the Chinese restaurant in the food court of Pharaoh’s palace Sarai wondered why her husband didn’t get that message rather than the one stating that Servant girls won’t get you where you want to go.

Abram thought he was doing what God had directed him to do if he took into account the hidden clues that weren’t actually in what God said and employed a 19th century deistic hermeneutics which didn’t actually believe Abram even existed. The devil could have told him that it wasn’t his job to make good on God’s promises, but why would the devil want to set Abram straight?

If one desires to do something wonderful it’s best to let God do the wonderful part. Although Abram loved to forge ahead on his own all he had to do was tell those 19th century know-it-alls where to go and do what he was told to do.

I have been listening to E. Dane Rogers’ sermons on Genesis. See Proceeding to Egypt | Genesis 12:10-20 for an account of what got Abram and Sarai into Egypt only to be driven out by Pharaoh himself.

Thanksgiving For a Wonderful Day

The springtime is bright in a light-hearted way.
Softly and kindly God’s speaking to me

Consequences—Six Sentence Story

If you think you did it you haven’t figured out yet what actually happened.

After reading this message which Arthur found in his cookie he was convinced that the insanity of humanity had finally arrived. The chef hand made these cookies daily chuckling as he wrapped cryptic kindnesses to pass on to his customers.

Although Arthur was offended by the thought of receiving revelation from sources outside his own mental swamp, he had to admit that the soups, breads and coffees were exquisite. Other patrons with their heads screwed on better found the odd messages innocuously entertaining if not delightfully subversive.

Regardless of Arthur’s philosophical commitments the café was so busy that if he actually did boycott it in protest, which he often insisted he just might do one day, the only consequences would be a shorter line for those who couldn’t wait to get in.

Show Us Your Bloomers

Dale offers the prompt “show us your bloomers” for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge. He clarifies that by “bloomers” he means flowers.

The first photo is of blackberry blossoms along the wilder parts of Regent Parkway. I know they are blackberries because I ate some last summer.

The second one is of some pink flowers along a trail through the various communities in the Fort Mill area. I don’t know what they are but I am glad they were there.

Now they’re gone like a dream I outgrew.
