Yarn Not Serious?
Having snorkeled off the coast of Maui this past winter, I gained a new admiration for the amazing diversity of underwater life. The shapes! The sizes! The colors! The weirdness!
But ‘way up here, above sea level, there’s a sight that’s even more amazing. There’s a lady who makes realistic-looking coral reef type critters with knitting needles and yarn. Blimey, Cap’n! They’re so intricate, so textured . . . they’d “pass.”
But let’s think this over: where would you display such knick-knacks? I mean it. Out of the context of the ocean floor, don’t they just look like there’s been some extra wear and tear on your kitchen sponges and winter gear?
On the other hand, I think she’s on to something big: a whole new line of products in the fashion world – a combination scrub sponge and earmuffs?!?!

PRAYER REQUEST: We lift up Ron M., who is hospitalized and taking an incredible amount of drugs, fighting Stage IV malignant melanoma in Bethesda, Md. He is cheerful and obedient, and a favorite of the nurses. He’s a believer and a wonderful guy by all accounts. But Lord, he’s in a tough situation: only 18% of the people are helped by this rigorous treatment. We pray that You will make Ron one of them. Grant him healing, Sweet Jesus. (Hebrews 11:6)
