Chaff in the Wind

Isaiah 40:21
Have you not been paying attention? Have you not been listening? Haven't you heard these stories all your life? Don't you understand the foundation of all things? God sits high above the round ball of earth. The people look like mere ants. He stretches out the skies like a canvas— yes, like a tent canvas to live under. He ignores what all the princes say and do. The rulers of the earth count for nothing. Princes and rulers don't amount to much. Like seeds barely rooted, just sprouted, They shrivel when God blows on them. Like flecks of chaff, they're gone with the wind.

I love this visual and will remember it always. It really gives a great illustration for those texts in the Bible that refer to chaff. Your pictures of the culture in which you now live with reference to Bible verses is so nice. Thank you.
I hope all is well and that your family visits have buoyed your spirits.
I am getting ready for company so apologize for my lack of interaction lately.
You remain in my prayers,
