Cappuccino Coast

It is as if someone had poured tons of coffee and milk into the ocean, then switched on a giant 
blender.




The shoreline north of Sydney were transformed into the Cappuccino Coast.




Foam swallowed an entire beach and half the nearby buildings, including the local lifeguards’ centre, in a freak display of nature at Yamba in New South Wales.




Scientists explain that the foam is created by impurities in the ocean, such as salts, chemicals, dead plants, decomposed fish and excretions from seaweed.


All are churned up together by powerful currents which cause the water to form bubbles
: 









One minute a group of teenage surfers were waiting to catch a wave, the next they were swallowed up in a giant bubble bath. The foam was so light that they could puff it out of their hands and watch it float away

Hillsong - Here I Am To Worship




Light of the world
You stepped down into darkness.
Opened my eyes, let me see.
Beauty that made this heart adore You
Hope of a life spent with You

Here I am to worship,
Here I am to bow down,
Here I am to say that You're my God
You're altogether lovely
All together worthy,
All together wonderful to me

King of all days
oh, so highly exalted
Glorious in heaven above
Humbly You came
To the earth You created
All for love's sake became poor

Here I am to worship,
Here I am to bow down,
Here I am to say that You're my God
You're altogether lovely
All together worthy,
All together wonderful to me

I'll never know how much it cost
To see my sin upon that cross
I'll never know how much it cost
To see my sin upon that cross
I'll never know how much it cost
To see my sin upon that cross
I'll never know how much it cost

Here I am to worship,
Here I am to bow down,
Here I am to say that You're my God
You're altogether lovely
All together worthy,
All together wonderful to me


Here I am to worship,
Here I am to bow down,
Here I am to say that You're my God
You're altogether lovely
All together worthy,
All together wonderful to me

I'll never know how much it cost
to see my sins upon that cross


Here I am to Worship


CHRIS TOMLIN -- HOW GREAT IS OUR GOD (HD version)



The splendor of a King, clothed in majesty
Let all the earth rejoice
All the earth rejoice

He wraps himself in Light, and darkness tries to hide
And trembles at His voice
Trembles at His voice

How great is our God, sing with me
How great is our God, and all will see
How great, how great is our God

Age to age He stands
And time is in His hands
Beginning and the end
Beginning and the end

The Godhead Three in One
Father Spirit Son
The Lion and the Lamb
The Lion and the Lamb

Name above all names
Worthy of our praise
My heart will sing
How great is our God

How great is our God, sing with me
How great is our God, and all will see
How great, how great is our God

The Tower of Babel




(Genesis 11.1-9)


AREN'T WE WONDERFUL?


“Yes! Aren’t we great!”

“Splendid!”

“We are absolutely splendiferous! Why, we are SO wonderful, let’s build a magnificent city to show just how wonderful we are!”

Oh, oh. The people who came after Noah were at it again. How quickly they forgot that everything they had came from God. And God is far, far more wonderful than they were.

But still, they said one to another, “Let’s build a glorious city to ourselves. And in that city, let’s build a tower that reaches into heaven!”

“Splendid idea!”

“Top rate!”

“Excellent!”

And so they all agreed.

And, the thing was, they COULD all agree, because in the time after the flood, everyone spoke the same language.

They all could work together. And when you work together, you can do almost anything. (But that can be dangerous too, when you don’t do the right thing.)



So one day God came to visit the magnificent city the people were building, and to see the great tower.

“This isn’t good,” God said. “Because they all speak the same language, there won’t be anything they can’t do!

“Every great thing they do, they will think that they are even greater - and there will be no end to the trouble that will bring. We will have to put a stop to this.” (God said, “We” because remember, there is God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. There is one God, but three persons together as one God.)

And so right then, God began to confuse the language of the people on earth. People started calling things by different names.

“Hand me that hammer,” one worker said to the other one day under the hot sun, while they were working together way up on the tower.

And the other worker handed him a brick instead.

He didn’t know what the other worker was talking about anymore.

“No! No! You dummy! Not a brick, a HAMMER!”

(Have you ever noticed how we always think there is something wrong with the OTHER person when they can’t understand us - and that if we just speak LOUDER they will!).

Well, they couldn’t get much work done like that!

And soon the people weren’t getting along so well anymore. They quit building the great city and the tower. All the people that spoke one new language decided to get together and move to a new place, while the people who spoke another language went to find a nice place somewhere else. And because of that, people began to move all over the earth.

So the magnificent tower never got finished.


It became known as the tower of Babel (“Babel” is like the Hebrew word for confusion), because that’s where God made all the people’s language sound like babbling to each other.
