If we are going to be used by God...

For thus says the One who is high and lifted up,

    who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy:

“I dwell in the high and holy place,

    and also with him who is of a contrite and lowly spirit,

to revive the spirit of the lowly,

    and to revive the heart of the contrite.

               -Isaiah 57:15

A great many think because they have been filled once, they are going to be full for all time after; but O, my friends, we are leaky vessels, and have to be kept right under the fountain all the time in order to keep full. If we are going to be used by God we have to be very humble. A man that lives close to God will be the humblest of men. I heard a man say that God always chooses the vessel that is close at hand. Let us keep near Him.   -Dwight Lyman Moody

Washington Post Mocked for Calling Bad Bunny‘s Vulgar Halftime Show ‘Wholesome‘  Perhaps explaining why the Washington Post is failing so badly, the paper has declared that Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl Halftime Show was “wholesome” entertainment with “family values” despite that the rapper’s songs were filled with drug references, and had explicit sexual content including both gay and straight sex.

Tucker Carlson’s and Candace Owens’s Terrifying Descent Into Madness Careers that began as critiques of establishment politics have devolved into outlandish conspiracy theories that blend New Age spirituality, esoteric metaphysics, and elaborate claims about the hidden masters of reality and society.

Zuckerberg Follows Billionaire Exodus To Florida As California Pushes New Wealth Tax Chamath Palihapitiya wrote on X: "With Zuck’s move to Florida, California’s total taxable wealth from billionaires has plummeted to well under $1T from over $2T just a few weeks ago. The loss of this tax revenue was totally avoidable but is now forever. All because Gavin Newsom stood motionless as this stupidly written bill, from a fringe union and a handful of socialist academics with an axe to grind, meandered its way into the public conversation without any action from him and freaked everyone out."
