In the midst of the 'work' I'm doing at the laptop I dodge in and out of facebook to see what's going on - wouldn't do to miss anything now, would it?! So far today we have had (via fb) the usual wee cuties, Rwanda and all other things African, weight loss (!), weather, News (with a capital N) items, latest TV, family and friends news and church news and events. Too early yet for my Peruvian friends!
Struck me that these items say a lot about me - what I'm most interested in - Rwanda by far takes up most space. And they say a lot about my friends - I could almost always say who has posted what without looking!
All of life is there - from quite sad family news to giant squid; from cute bunnies to killings in far off troubled lands. I have to confess I sometimes find some of it trivial and hardly worth the space - including some of the stuff I might post myself now and again! But much of it is important to someone somewhere.
Reminds me of the God who cares about every detail; for whom nothing is too small or trivial. So today I ask him to comfort my cousin and his wife, be there for the people of South Sudan and Central African Republic, and yes, guard and protect those for whom the sometimes boring, rather British subject of the weather is causing real problems just now.
