GOD IS IN CONTROL
World Events
Life goes on, but I can’t help but be praying and thinking about Russia and Ukraine every day. I listened to the following video with Condolezza Rice. Former Secretary of State and a very smart person, Ms. Rice shares that the recent developments have united the NATO nations in a way she never thought they would. I think the entire world is uniting against the Russian government.
Even Switzerland has picked a side which hasn’t happened for 500 years. They are joining the sanctions against Russia, while still remaining neutral. To put that length of time into perspective, Michelangelo was alive then. Martin Luther hadn’t published his famous work yet (Ninety-Five Theses), which started the Protestant Reformation.
One of my writer friends, Sara Brunsvold, shared this poignant video from a young woman in Russia. What’s happening is NOT okay with the Russian people. This was a few days ago (2/25/22), but she expresses her thoughts and feelings about the situation.

Grateful for the opportunity to visit with a 12-year-old girl who enjoys reading and writing and wants to be a writer someday. We will keep in touch!
