DAILY PRAYER: Dear Lord, May Your kingdom come and Your will be done, on Earth as in Heaven. Amen. Alleluia!
1A: In 2018, the Brownsburg Community School Corporation of Indiana ordered staff to use students’ preferred names/pronouns. High school music teacher, John Kluge, initially tried a compromise (using last names only), but the district rejected it and he ultimately resigned and sued the district with help from the Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), alleging religious discrimination and violation of his rights under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act. After years of litigation (including appeals), the district agreed earlier this month to pay Kluge $650,000 and provide training for senior staff on religious accommodation under federal law.

EVERYDAY HEROES: CLICK https://www.youtube.com/shorts/zeRCti-ZgRY [2:50] to hear a brief story from a survivor of the Kindertransport of 1938-1939, when the United Kingdom took in nearly 10,000 children, most of them Jewish, from Germany, Austria, occupied Czechoslovakia and the Free City of Danzig. The children were placed in British foster homes, hostels, schools, and farms. Some of the children were able to reunite with their families after the war, but most often they were the only members of their families who survived the Holocaust. Today, there are statues commemorating the effort in London and Harwich, Berlin and Hamburg, Gdansk (Poland), and Hook of Holland.
LENTEN MEDITATION: Sometimes God works through lazy people! ~ On November 9, 1989, East German official Günter Schabowski walked into a routine press conference holding a sheet of notes he hadn’t properly read.
The East German government had drafted a plan to gradually relax travel restrictions, a slow, controlled process meant to unfold over weeks. But when a reporter asked when the new rules would take effect, Schabowski flipped through his papers, confused, and casually replied: “As far as I know… it takes effect immediately.”
He wasn’t supposed to say that. The policy wasn’t finalized, the border guards weren’t informed, and nothing was prepared.
But the world heard “immediately.” Within minutes, the announcement spread across TV and radio. Thousands of East Berliners rushed to the checkpoints demanding to cross.
The border guards, overwhelmed and lacking orders, panicked. Just before midnight, one commander made a split-second decision: he opened the gate. Crowds surged through, cheering, climbing the Wall, and celebrating with West Berliners.
What was meant to be a slow reform became the moment the Berlin Wall fell, triggered not by diplomacy or military force, but by a single misread sentence.
MILITARY: Details are scarce, for obvious reasons, but the Pentagon has announced the elite Army 82nd Airborne Division is deploying to the Middle East. These highly-trained special forces are able to parachute into hostile territory and secure key infrastructure, airfields, and other land targets.
PRAY FOR AMERICA: Amen.
STUPID PEOPLE: I just unfollowed a relative who posted that The SAVE Act is a Republican ploy to keep women from voting. If I didn’t already know from multiple past experiences that she’s beyond help, I’d send the above to her. Instead, I’m going to share it with you. I realize y’all know this stuff … but it will make me feel better.
TOLERANCE: Racist much?
GRAMMY NOTES: CLICK https://www.youtube.com/shorts/hMoNYXO-1NE [1:46] to hear something I never heard before … and I majored in Art History! I really love the brain one (shown above). Intelligent Design posits that information is a hallmark of an intelligent mind and that, because there is information embedded in DNA, it must have been created by an intelligent mind. I look at what Michaelangelo painted and that’s what I see.
