« The Fix Was In | Main | 14.5 Million Pages Served » December 31, 2004Happy New YearAs I write this, donations to the American Red Cross via Amazon.com for tsunami disaster relief are approaching $10 million, given by more than 126,000 people in contributions averaging about $75. That's an amazing and heartwarming thing to keep in mind as 2004 winds to its inevitable end right on schedule and 2005 starts whether you're ready for it or not. It was in the high 60s today in the Nashville area, with a partly cloudy sky. Rather nice for the last day of December. We grilled out.
I was thinking about putting together a "2004 Greatest Hits," but I'm not going to. There were simply too many high points both for me as a blogger here at HobbsOnline this year. You can scan my monthly archives and pick your favorites. As 2004 comes to a close, I refer you to this post by Jonathan & Amanda Witt regarding God and the tsunami, which captures in brief the reality of our world and God's place in it. Christ participates in the suffering of the world. Was God present when the tsunami struck? Yes. He was stricken by it.I don't know what 2005 will bring - to the world, to America, to you, or to me. I'm mulling some significant changes in my focus both here on the blog and in general, and may have some announcements on that score soon. I wish you and yours a safe, prosperous and rewarding 2005. Happy New Year. Comments
