Not a sparrow shall fall …
On a difficult day a couple months ago, I found a little bird. Somehow, it was comforting and depressing at the same time.
Not a sparrow shall fall on the ground without your Father. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear ye not therefore, yea are of more value than many sparrows. Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven. Matthew 10:29-32
… when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. I Corinthians 15:54-57


Cousin Ian
This background was made for this blog by my cousin Ian, who always brightens my day IM-ing me when he sees me online.
I wish I got to see him growing up. I’ve met him twice, at a family reunion (age 7 and really cute!), and the second time at my grandmother’s funeral (age 13, still really cute!). According to him, he’s not such cute little kid anymore, but I haven’t seen any pictures of him since then. We tried out voice chat today for the first time and I’m trying to adjust my impression from boy soprano to almost-man voice.
Blood ain’t thicker than water, but it shore is thick.

Miwaza BG
Miwaza created several graphics for this blog which you will see here soon. For now, I’ve added her blood-on-metal background. She is a good friend and former student, deacon’s daughter, powerful sister to five siblings, church photographer, amateur Garageband composer and movie director and blogs her work. Check it out!

X-Files
I miss Mulder and Scully and I think this blog looks good with a black background once in a while.

BG: Hong Kong, The Landmark
The background picture was taken at The Landmark in Hong Kong. It was so filled with expensive-looking stores and expensive-looking people I felt really out of place.
