the art of waiting pt 1

Dear Friends,

I quoted from our Friends at EDA the last time I wrote. But something else in that same write-up caught my attention. Here it is:

Since Nov 2020, many of us have been immersed in data about elections: voter rolls, CVRs, network diagrams, machine manuals, databases, etc. I would surmise there is an endless amount of analysis that could be done and will need to be done in the future as election technology evolves.

I for one believe that many of us (myself included) have transitioned from doing useful research to chasing our tail with respect to analyzing data. It is a trap and we need to extract ourselves from it or at least recognize there are limits to this approach.

I would suggest we need to focus on the immorality of using voting machines.

…which we have!

But I would like to offer another option—a greater focus on actively, prayerfully waiting on God.

There’s an art to waiting on God. I have much to say on this, but I don’t have time to say it right now (it’ll be the subject of my next letter).

Suffice it to say, God can do things for us that we can’t do for ourselves, if we pray. (Nothing like stating the obvious.) For example, He can confound the enemy into destroying themselves.

The premise is that we are in a battle between good and pure evil…and we are on the good side, which means we are on God’s side. (This isn’t just about a difference of opinion.)

A couple of us spent the last day or two humbling ourselves under the mighty hand of God through fasting and prayer, as has become our habit. I went to prayer first thing upon waking this morning, still in a state of fasting. I always feel closer to God when fasting. God laid several passages on my heart that I’d like to share (in my next letter). My inner strength and peace were renewed.

And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting (overeating), and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares. (Luk 21:34)

Again, more next time. Meanwhile, you’ll appreciate this. (5 min)

And you’ll learn from this. (63 min) (I also have a lot to say about the “Israel” situation. I’ve been saying it on FB.)

And lastly, I filed another Public Records Request. This one with Todd Wiltgen, my Lancaster County election official. I asked for copies of email correspondence between him and Wayne Bena, within a certain time frame, that contained certain keywords. Here’s the reply I got:

$107 dollars an hour!! $1,284 total!!

I had fun formulating this reply and citing the statute:

That’s it. I’m late to a call.

Keep the faith (first) and keep up the fight (second).

God bless,
