The end is nigh!

I logged in to Blogger to post a once-every-few-months' weblog entry, only to read this message:

FTP publishing will no longer be available after May 1, 2010.

You currently have blogs that are published using FTP. You must migrate your blogs to a new custom domain URL or a blogspot URL.

Yes, it is the end of an era (in Internet time). I have been limping along on this almost-to-capacity site (10 MB!!), which stopped displaying archives back in February 2007, using a blog design circa 2001. Not that I write much here now, but it is a little nostalgic finally to be evicted.

To contemplate and to do

If you let your heart be open--not closed in prejudice or through fear--and if you truly desire and really "dig for" the truth, Christ will deliver to you the answers for which you have sought as a result of your sincere necessity.

It is critical to understand how this process of getting answers works. God is only bound to give us what we need to know and not what we may want or wish to know. We will always have what it is that is relevant--by His determination--to our salvation on any given day. We will always be provided with enough truth to grow on.

What determines the rate and the amount of further answers is our readiness as seen in the prior acceptance of what we already have been given. For every morsel of truth previously delivered, we must be acting on it, taking visible steps to make it a living part of us. Or, no more will be forthcoming. What is our universal condition is that we obstruct the process because we are not willing to accept all what God has been willing to offer!
