Many will remember the fall season of 2008 as the beginning of the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression of 1929. In the months to follow, many lost their jobs, homes, and investments. In a BBC interview a year later, Alan Greenspan, former head of the US Federal Reserve, indicated that the average person doesn’t believe it will happen again. He said, “That is the unquenchable capability of human beings when confronted with long periods of prosperity to presume that it will continue.”
Assuming that things will continue as they always have is not just 21st-century-type thinking. In the first century, Peter wrote of people who thought that life would continue as it was and that Jesus would not return. He said, “Since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation” (2 Peter 3:4). Jesus said He would come back, but the people continued to live in disobedience as though He would never return. But His delay is only because of God’s patience with us, for He is “not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance” (v.9).
Paul tells us that Christians ought to live “soberly, righteously, and godly” in the light of Christ’s certain return. (Titus 2:12). Are you ready to meet Him?

Hi Hi Hi :)
Good evening, ((((Lauren))))
This is a great “road” trip...although I guess it’d be more
like a boat trip...or air trip! LOL!
Hope you are doing well! :)

My buddy works on this program. They launch the interceptor from Kwajalien.
In the 1980`s - 1990`s this coastal offshore ocean grid was an insecure area.
Any small boat could get in this area undetected and watch SUBROCS fly overhead.
I hope they have battened down the hatches since then.
Hope your work day went well.
Did you leave Pigpen at the site? *HUGS*
Very cool!
