Another fine morning in Narrabri.

What the Gospel accounts showed was a Jesus who was very concerned about economic exploitation, but whose economic denunciations were not broad, to-whom-it-may-concern condemnations of all wealth. Instead, He directed His denunciations in very specific geographical and socioeconomic ways, aiming His barbs at the exploitative members of the ruling class. Jerry Bowyer

Another beautiful morning. A bit breezy on the way home, but not too bad.

To get the blessings of Jesus, we must really want to know what He taught and to follow Him wherever He leads. Jerry Bowyer

After the rain the last couple of days, this morning was clear and low humidity. Great morning for riding.

The truth is, God’s faithfulness and loyalty and love are never put to the test in our difficulties; it was my faithfulness, my loyalty, my love for him that was being tested. Andrew Brunson

I decided that if I ever had the opportunity, I would be open and honest about my struggles, that my testimony would be one of weakness: my weakness, but God’s strength. Maybe God chose a weak man to serve as an encouragement to others who feel weak.  Andrew Brunson

The Kaputar National Park is closed for road upgrades. A beautiful morning to be on the bike, although my muscles are complaining.
