| La Tour Hospital Geneva |
We took Matthew to La Tour hospital this morning to see the head specialist. The hospital is very modern and clean. The doctors all wear the same outfit and look like a team. Matthew didn't like his head being manipulated and cried most of the time. It is necessary to correct the deformity which no doubt occurred in the womb.

I have now installed BLOGSY in the hope that this will make blog posting simpler but it remains to be seen. Certainly you can import photos from the iPad's own libraries but it seems to stick them in a table which you need to align manually. You will notice I added the buzzards later and they are in a separate table. The instructions tell you to edit the HTML if you want the, side by side - derrrrr! - no better than using Blogger in a browser except it's easier to grab the image in the first place using BLOGSY. Anyway - a steep learning curve ahead.
I am content that blogger provides the best blog environment. Better than Wordpress. Also, I am using it on the road without having a wifi connection. You can save it as a local image - click the floppy disk symbol. Whilst off-line you can insert images from the iPad itself.

| Matthew Johnson |
When I posted this picture of Matthew offline it did not accept the caption nor did it put a table around it. Need to investigate this further. However, the caption and alt text are there in the properties box when you click the image again.
What matters is that you set drafts on when offline, and then switch it on again before you post - then the image is uploaded and converted to an online link.

I went for a walk before lunch and took a couple of shots in Challex. More ants were found in A&B's bedroom.
Romans 3:27-31 : Therefore, where is boasting? It has been excluded. By what kind of law? Of works? No, but by a lawm of faith. 28 For we consider a person to be justified by faith apart from the works of the law. 29 Or is God the God of the Jews only? Is he not also the God of the Gentiles? Yes, also of the Gentiles, 30 since God is one, who will justify ⌊those who are circumcised⌋ by faith and ⌊those who are uncircumcised⌋ through faith. Therefore, do we nullify the law through faith? May it never be! But we uphold the law.
Here Paul concludes his argument about law and faith. It is no wonder ordinary people misunderstood his teaching, he is right to urge people not to boast because we have no righteousness of our own to be proud of. However, it needs to be said that some people, even those without a faith, seem to have a head start in terms of good manners and a positive disposition towards others.
Paul is keen to pint out also that God is not a possession of the Jews but is God of all people. He seems to be saying that if you are brought up as a Jew, observing the law, you have no advantage over the person who puts their faith in Christ. However, he affirms the law as being the just requirement of God for all people, but it is not the means by which we are saved.
