It's a beautiful hymn, that is infrequently sung in church, why is that ?
From time to time, we all need reminders that no matter what the failings or the weaknesses He still does.
Mother Nature is acting out in our part of the world too in a different way. No hurricanes or blizzards or floods or droughts.
All things happen for a reason - anywhere.
The environment has taken a turn for the worst at the moment. The mosquitoes are causing problems with a new strain of Dengue. Many factors are probably the cause besides breeding sites which we are constantly reminded to prevent, the extreme weather could be the other reason that's helping the mozzies along. No, there is still no cure against the virus of the Aedes mosquito. Nature will continue to find ways to survive.
The PSI (air quality)is bad, every year we go through this problem for a while, where the neighbouring countries (farmers) burn the land to such an extent it affects the air (smells of smoke)all the way across the seas not just here over in Singapore but the whole of the west coast of Malaysia too. We aren't pulling on oxygen masks just yet. Hope the winds change.
One would think I was not talking about urban Singapore but some backwater 'ulu' country, but this is happening here and now.
How much is within our control, not much I think. We'll just have to weather it.

Blessings to you my dear . . . . thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteWonderful thoughts here. Glad to hear from you. :-)
ReplyDeleteGreetings from London.
BM things are happening here too. I was informed about the forest fires creating pollution in ur beautiful city and that many are already wearing masks. Nature is perfect till we don't interfere but the fact of the matter is that we are callous. Most of the calamities and disasters are man made but then as u have mentioned something about life itself it goes on...despite new strains of viruses and bacteria I guess we'll keep living...perhaps evolving or even succumbing. Who knows what's going to be. What matters is how attentive we are towards mother nature's call to us. Are we listening...
ReplyDeleteGr8 to see u around.
