  • This 1921 essay/obituary of Mary White, written by her father, was required reading when I was in school.  It wasn't only for the grammar and writing style, but for the topic as well.  It was a unique look at the life of a young girl so many years ago.  I'm glad I had the chance to re...

    Message 1: from General James Mattis, on the matter of professional reading, 20 November 2003 ….The problem with being too busy to read is that you learn by experience (or by your men’s experience), i.e. the hard way. By reading, you learn through others’ experiences, general...

Divine Providence

  • All indicators sadly suggest our nation is heading the way to great suffering, Weimar Republic style. This is an exerpt from the story of the Ohio business owner (King) who ran a non-union shop being shot by an alleged trespassing union member, trying to pressure him into running a union shop.

     

    "Last Wednesday, however, the attacks on Mr. King became much more serious when he was awakened late in the evening at his home in Monroe County, Michigan and saw that the motion lights in his driveway had come on. When he looked out his front window, he saw a figure near his SUV and went outside.

     

    As soon as he got outside his front door, King yelled at the individual who was crouched down by King’s vehicle. As soon as King yelled, the suspect stood and, without hesitation, fired a shot at Mr. King.

     

    Luckily for King, as he yelled, he also stumbled. If it weren’t for that, however, John King’s injuries might have been much, much worse. In fact, he might have been killed." 

     

    I believe there will be many 'lucky coincidences' in our collective futures. We should not forget that God is active in our lives; He is not just sitting on the sidelines, disinterested. Rely on (and notice) Divine Providence when you see it. Believers have many small and large miracles ahead. Be comforted and fear not.
