I am a firm believer in the Hand of God when it comes to History and if ever there was a time we were in need of his Presence is now.
Let me first review a couple of examples of what I am referring to:
First, the Rise of Nazism and the danger the World faced from total occupation. At the last possible minute, and I suggest with the help of God's Hand, along came Winston Spencer Churchill. He had been warning the World of the danger of Nazism for the past decade but only after Europe had fallen and Britain was faced with imminent invasion that he was at long last given his chance to save the Free World.
Then there was the 1961 Cuban Missile Crisis. Unknown to the West, Russian Generals stationed on Cuba had instructions to retaliate with Nuclear Weapons should they be attacked by the Americans. The Joint Chiefs of Staff - to a man, demanded of the young President that such an attack take place. John Fitzgerald Kennedy stood his ground and opted for a marine boycott instead. Nuclear War was averted. Kennedy's election win against all odds in 1960 was, I submit, by God's design.
Okay, to present day.
We are faced with a moral collapse - the absence of values and principles on the part of our politicians and yet they only reflect the state of affairs that exists in the public at large. Tied to this is a breakdown in the Western economies - our governments have pandered to special interest groups - people wanting things that have been earned by others or more likely, taken from future generations in the way of massive debt.
Europe is a prime example - and Greece et al are the symptoms. Canada's record is not much better despite Reports to the contrary. Our Debt is too high - $600 billion and our Deficit is at an historic level - $50+ billion. But it is the USA where things are most troubling given the leadership that America has provided to the World since the decline of the British Empire.
America's Debt is approaching $13 Trillion which is 100% of their annual GDP. Their Deficit in real terms is even worse - upwards to several trillion dollars. And until at least 2012 their country is being led by their most Socialist President ever. Simply stated, the US is going down the tubes and that has severe implications for us all.
The Hand of God..
There is a man on the Scene that is trying to rectify this terrible situation. He wants to return the States to it roots where hard work and values are once again respected and are the norm. Where profit is not seen as a dirty word. Where governments pay their way by balancing their books and by keeping their size in check.
Many of you have probably not even heard of this chap but he appears daily on the Fox News channel. His name is Glen Beck and within the last year he has had more influence on middle America than anyone, including Sarah Palin.
You will soon be well aware of Mr. Beck. He has called for a Rally at the steps of the Lincoln Memorial on August 28 of this year. I predict that this Rally will be the biggest one in history for the States - surpassing even the numbers present during Reverend King's 'I have a dream' rally in the 1960s.
The people who will be attending the Beck Rally are the ones who work day in and day out to make a life for themselves and their families ever believing in Freedom and the lost values mentioned above. They are the ones that the Left has vilified as being 'red-necked, religious besotted - racists'. They have been portrayed as being on the Fringe.
After Glen Beck's Rally in August, the Left will no longer be able to dismiss them.
But of much more importance, if the US is to retain its leadership role in the World and if we in the West are to retain our way of life, it is essential that middle america take back its lost power.
Glen Beck, to me, is a potential example of the Hand of God at work.
As I see it..
