“Nothing in all Nature is more certain than the fact that no single thing or event can stand alone. It is attached to all that has gone before it, and it will remain attached to all that will follow it. It was born of some cause, and so it must be followed by some effect in an endless chain.” FactsCertainCausesBornGoneEffectsEventsEndlessChainsStand Alone Author:Julian Johnson
“A little while ago I visited Omaha Beach for the second time in my life. In the intervening 26 years, nearly 20,000 tides had come and gone and little remains visible of the greatest military landing in man's history of endless warring. What's to be seen is mostly in a superb museum and a panoramic cemetery. The cemetery memorializes with dignity and grandeur the event and the dead, and moves one deeply. Before they die less precipitously and/or in lesser purpose, Americans who can should visit World War II's Normandy Beach. Such seeing and remembering helps a man's perspective.” MenWorldShouldYearsLittlesWarHelpingRememberMovingPurposeDiesGoneSeeingMilitaryEventsPerspectiveDignityRemainsEndlessBeachWar Of The WorldsVisibleMuseumsWorld War IiTidesWorld War IGrandeurLandingCemeterySuperbInterveningNormandyOmahaGreatest MilitaryOmaha Beach Author:Malcolm Forbes
“From our limited vantage point, our lives are marked by an endless series of contingencies. We frequently find ourselves, instead of acting as we planned, reacting to an unexpected turn of events. We make plans but are often forced to change those plans. But there are no contingencies with God. Our unexpected, forced change of plans is a part of His plan. God is never surprised; never caught off guard; never frustrated by unexpected developments. God does as He pleases and that which pleases Him is always for His glory and our good.” DoeTurnsActingOur LivesPlansEventsDevelopmentPleaseGlorySeriesCaughtEndlessUnexpectedFrustratedReactingContingencyVantage PointUnexpected Turns Book:Trusting God Source: Trusting God
