Isaiah chapter 40 - God sees the bigger picture. We have a hard time seeing beyond ourselves and our own problems and achievements. God sees the future and knows what becomes of us. He has a bigger plan on a grander scale. Trust him to have your best interests at heart.
On this day:
1999 - Nicole had hurt her finger playing basketball the night before so Grandma picked her up and took her to Dr Kim. He of course ordered x-rays and I think it was cracked but not enough to cast it, which was good, because basketball season was not over.
1859 - The first flying trapeze act was performed by Jules Leotard at Cirque Napoleon in Paris, France. He was also the designer of the garment that is named after him. Here is a bit of useless information for you.
Parenting - I met them at the x-ray clinic. She was 14 but still, her little bone was broke. Ok, I confess to being an over fretting mother. Fortunately, as they get older you settle into a more relaxed state worrying about them all the time, or do you?
Farquar Islands
The Farquhar Group of Islands belong to the Outer Islands of Seychelles. They are 700 miles south west of Victoria, the capital city on Mahe Island. The Farquhar Group consists of one separate island and two atolls as well as one submerged reef. The group is made up of Farquhar Atoll that has two larger islands and eight small islets, Providence Atoll with two islets, which are Providence Island and Cerf Island, St. Pierre Island and Wizard Reef, which is submerged.
St. Pierre is surrounded with fossil coral cliffs that have been undercut and have many blowholes. Many caverns have been cut by the sea, so there is no fresh water on the atoll. It is almost impossible to access the island by sea, but there is a derelict jetty at a ruined settlement on the northwest coast that can only be accessed by boat in very calm weather.
The Farquhar Group and the Aldabra Group of islands are unusual because they have been submerged and emerged several times over the past tens of thousands of years. The last time they were submerged was about 125,000 years ago
