Welcome to PINS OF LIGHT!

Pins of Light: Scattered hints to provoke thought and talk about God...


This bible blog was launched for Advent 2007, and began as a daily reflection on scriptural readings until Easter of 2008.  Since every reflection posed a question to God, this initial portion of Pins of Light is called Questions for God.

From March 2008 to December 2009, Pins of Light has featured a weekly reflection on the Sunday readings.

Since 2008, Advent and Lenten recollections have also been conducted on line.   

In September 2010, this web site with its new look launches as the Sunday bible blogs resume.  I hope you enjoy reading them and stumble into some hints about God's whereabouts.

SHOWING OFF MY WOUNDS (John 20:19-31): Easter PDF Print E-mail



According to statistics, 11.5 million cosmetic procedures were done in 2006 in the United States alone.  Over 3 million received Botox treatments.  Almost 1.5 million underwent laser hair removal.  And  there were approximately 400,000 patients for liposuction and another 400,000 for breast augmentation.

Thanks to today's advanced medical technology and an outrageously beauty-conscious culture, more and more men and women are going for cosmetic procedures.  An ad for the metrosexual lifestyle may as well go:  "Got a problem with a body part? Just fix it!"
