Study Break

I was reading a chapter of "A Long Obedience in the Same Direction" the other night on how Psalm 124 is a magnification of the items of life that are thought to be unpleasant. Peterson was using an example of a friend of his who took magnifed pictures of ordinary, every day things. The results were "artful", giving a new perspective on the things that you would normally view as insignificant, such as a Brillo pad.

""God's strong name is our help, the same God who made heaven and earth,"... It takes the majesty of the One who pulled a universe into order and beauty, and finds this same God involved in the local troubles of a quite ordinary person.""

So I decided to play around, have some fun, and see what I could come up with. Can you tell what the following images are?


Here they are together:



My roommate guessed "sunglasses".... wrong!

The other roommate just said "Hmmmm....".... wrong again!

These are everyday, ordinary,.... utensils. A fork, knife, and spoon.

So tell me your thoughts:
Did the cutlery become "artful"?
Will you ever stab, cut, and scoop your food the same way again?

I need to go do some nursing stuff, for crying out loud! Next test is tomorrow on geriatrics and orthopedics.

Soooo, does the fork, knife, and spoon transform into an Autobot? It looks like it could transform into a superhero Transformer and protect the world from the evil Decepticons!

Whew, I need to get out more . . .

Love you,
