Tomorrow is the first day of the trout season in Tasmania.
Yay.
It is the day anglers such as myself have been champing at the bit for since the last season finished in April.
Tomorrow also starts the beginning of a new tradition.
Seeing as my usual fishing partner has been waylaid interstate.
My backup fishing brother has been struck down by a medical inconvenience. (Actually he's really really sick)
And I've left it late to contact anyone else,
I see the need to go establish some food protocols at a fabulous little cafe in town to get the season started correctly.
Once I am egg, caffeine and hollandaise infused, I shall off and conquer the piscatorial foe. Or two hopefully.
Can it be a tradition when it's the first time?
In the morning I shall follow a Northeast favourite, before returning to a local stream for a good late afternoon work out.
Utter bliss.
It even looks like it may be sunny for a bit.
Double yay.
Genesis 26
I sort of alluded to a pattern repeating in yesterday's post. Today really felt like some kind of deja vu.
Isaac pretended his wife was his sister so he wouldn't get killed. (His thinking not the Philistines)
They got busted.
He tried to save face.
Just like a chapter from his dad's book(scroll) ala Egypt.
Actually speaking of Egypt, I found it curious God speaks directly about not going to Egypt. Maybe the beginning of the foundation of the plans that come later.
His next chapter was again like Abraham's.
God blessed him and he got rich.
AND others recognised God's blessing in his life.
v28 "We see plainly that the LORD has been with you."
Isaac also had a son that made life difficult.
Abraham - Ishmael
Isaac - Esau
Isaac and Abraham both knew God, walked with Him and others recognised it.
Brilliant.

A bigger pattern that just seems to keep going is the fact that no matter who stuffs up, God's always got the ending under control. Good things can still come out of the mistakes we make.
Yep. Nice pick up and so true.
