As we begin the year of our Lord, two-thousand eighteen (2018), let us reflect upon the providential and sheer miraculousness of political, military, legislative and judicial developments favoring "the good and the beautiful" (as phrased by our Founding Fathers) in the world, and particularly in our country. Never mind the ongoing and perpetual sideshows, distractions, deceptions, and political assassinations of our best and brightest in government. Let us never forget to thank God for the blessings of mercy and truth!
"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things."
Phillipians 4:8
In the words of President Donald Trump (see video), "For America, the sky is never the limit."
And then it was New Year's Eve. And then it was New Year's Day... Year One of the Trump Era.
