It’s FRIDAY once again…. Paul Harvey’s favorite day…
And here we are partially post primary elections… the big three we thought would chart our course for the future weeks. Well…nothing’s perfect in the political world – and it seems this year is more uncertain than most.
People in the stock market are nervously looking over their shoulders after the 100o point DJA drop that occurred two weeks ago… not enough time has passed to mask the jitters that occasioned. In addition the “gold bug” advocates seem more active than usual – about the only thing we don’t have at present (and that could happen before this gets on the air) is another outbreak of tidal waves, tornadoes or earthquake stimulating volcanoes – it’s just a shaky world out there by any measure.
However… for those who have secured their ultimate destination according to the Word of God – the Bible, and following the best judgment afforded by that miraculous book – there’s a LOT more peace to be had than through any other avenue of which I’m aware. You just can’t beat the odds put out by the creator of the Universe and all you may learn about His being from that wonderful record.
I know,,, I know… there’s a huge contingent out there who mark me down as a ‘fruitcake’ -- but the problem is they’ve never given the evidence supporting the supernatural record of the Bible a fair hearing. One of the best documented cases of a professed agnostic – Civil War Generla Lew Wallace – coming to belief in Christ is a case you should at least give an open hearing. There are others also – but one cannot intelligently ignore the miraculous fulfillment record and history of the Bible – at the very least -- that’s my take on it.
No doubt there will be things I do not fully understand – but that’s true of the nature of light – or of modern day electronics… even of statistical alternative probabilities. I’m impressed by a simple illustration of the value in recognizing Intelligent Design: Someone has said if you come across a Coke Bottle in the middle of hundreds of square miles of sand like you’d find in the Sahara – you would not reasonably assume that it happened by chance or natural process accident. To all sensibilities it must at least present a crack in the door opening to Intelligent Design…
Once I had a very engaging conversation with an ocular scientist on an aircraft flight from
Well… I rambled off the track today. Lord willing, we’ll be together again Monday. Drop me a line at n4zhk@arrl.net if you’re so inclined. I do my best to answer all notes and letters within a day or so.
Cordially, IN HIM

“JUST A MINUTE”
SHE SAID WHAT OTHERS DON’T SAY
Just a Minute: -- Candor may become the new vogue in
Chris, who used to flack for Tip O’Neil, -- should have given departing Campbell Brown a medal for candor when she released this statement asking to be cut loose early from her contract:
“To be clear: this is my decision, as for why, I could have said, and that I am stepping down to spend more time with my children (which I truly want to do). Or that I am leaving to pursue other opportunities (which I also truly want to do). But I’ve never had much tolerance for others' spin, so I can't imagine trying to stomach my own. The simple fact is not enough people want to watch my program, and I owe it to myself, and CNN, to get out of the way so [they] can try something else.”
Three cheers for Candid Campbell. We wish for you a more rewarding job.
