YAHB@arce (2026-10-08 01:25:25) We are home safe and sound, after interstate detours and delays in flights. Now for a nap.

YAHB@arce (2026-10-05 08:40:52) Eating healthy is a challenge these days.

YAHB@arce (2026-10-05 07:18:59) Missus's laptop has been updated, thanks to Son2.

YAHB@arce (2026-10-05 03:08:28) Precious moments to be treasured. Thank God for each one.

YAHB@arce (2026-10-04 21:08:48) The light has appeared, gradually, to enlighten us once again. We welcome it.

YAHB@arce (2026-10-04 19:43:12) Good morning. May it be so.

Reply to @arce YAHB@arce (2026-10-04 07:03:07) This summary is good because

1. It gives a positive perspective, that of saying “yes” to God;
2. It focuses on loving others, preventing obsession with self;
3. it emphasizes God's initiative, who is faith first to us.

YAHB@arce (2026-10-04 07:00:51) A fine use of time is to consider what it means to be faithful to God. In a summary statement, Grok gave a great conclusion: “Christian faithfulness looks like a life that keeps saying ‘yes’ to God—trusting Him, obeying Him, and loving others—through every season, because He first remained faithful to us.”

YAHB@arce (2026-10-04 00:57:22) > If we can make it clear that the writers of the various books of the Bible were inspired of God in a sense that no other men were ever inspired of God, that they were so gifted and taught and led and governed by the Holy Spirit in their utterances as recorded in the Bible, that they taught the truth and nothing but the truth, that their teachings were absolutely without error,—then we have in the Bible a court of final appeal and of infallible wisdom to which we can go to settle every question of doctrine or duty.

─R.A. Torrey, *The Fundamental Doctrines of the Christian Faith*

Reply to @aaa YAHB@arce (2026-10-03 21:35:41) That made a difference. The font size improved. Thanks!
It still doesn't zoom out, but the text is more legible now.
It's an old-person problem. :)

YAHB@arce (2026-10-03 10:02:19) Day with family members, night out also, tremendous time together.

Show me your ways, Lord,
teach me your paths.
Guide me in your truth and teach me,
for you are God my Savior,
and my hope is in you all day long.

Reply to @aaa YAHB@arce (2026-10-02 21:31:33) @aaa Yes, sorry I was not clear. I use an older IPhone. The font appears small, so I tried to enlarge it by zooming out with the fingers. That's when it doesn't resize to fit the screen.

YAHB@arce (2026-10-02 10:19:48) Catsitting vs. babysitting, sort of.

YAHB@arce (2026-10-02 08:51:10) @aaa Seems the #tinyap site is not resposive on a smartphone. Is that in the works, by chance?

YAHB@arce (2026-10-02 08:44:45) Pizza for supper, easier when you're babysitting.

YAHB@arce (2026-10-02 05:09:46) Far from the crazéd crowd is where
I search, to find some quiet peace;
In clear and unpolluted air
May purer thoughts and plans increase.

YAHB@arce (2026-10-02 02:08:54) Hard being away from home, especially at meal time.

Reply to @ganbold@sns1.hydranlab.com YAHB@arce (2026-10-01 20:45:32) @ganbold@sns1.hydranlab.com Good posture. Most are on the media to argue, not to learn.

YAHB@arce (2026-10-01 20:44:10) Still have an account on x.com but now it has thrown me to verify it on the cellphone, which I do not use. So now what?

YAHB@arce (2026-10-01 20:25:52) Using phanpy for the English, tinyap's webapp for Portuguese. Maybe I should reverse them?

Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.

YAHB@arce (2026-10-01 10:04:04) House being renovated while I'm traveling. It's happening fast. It's almost scary.

YAHB@arce (2026-10-01 09:46:13) Phone call interrupted my blogthink. Post will have to get finished tomorrow.

YAHB@arce (2026-10-01 07:28:17) Time for another blog post. Thinking.

YAHB@arce (2026-10-01 07:04:57) The quiet corner is best.

YAHB@arce (2026-10-01 00:34:34) Is simplicity overrated?
