The Fall of Angela Merkel

This is what it looked like before it collapsed.

After two years’ exposure to the elements, an equestrian statue of recently-retired German Chancellor Angela Merkel… has collapsed (https://dailysceptic.org/2023/09/16/equestrian-statue-of-angela-merkel-collapses-spontaneously-under-its-own-weight/). Shades of Dagon. (See 1 Samuel Chapter 5)

Here’s what it looks like now.

The statue was made of “recycled light concrete” (cheap, cheap!).

Looks like they tried to hold it together with duct tape (No, I’m not kidding).

Hello? Is God trying to tell us something here? The statue’s cheap and hollow and it fell apart. It’s also covered with pigeon poop. Or is that just the cheap metallic patina wearing off so you can see the plaster-of-Paris underneath?

He who has eyes to see, let him see.

 

Have I Just Been Given a Sign?

I was sitting outside this afternoon, writing my Newswithviews column for the week–a column about my new book, His Mercy Endureth Forever, and my Bell Mountain series in general.

I was just finishing the work when I chanced to look up: and what did I see?

A beautiful, graceful, full-grown deer trotting across the yard, only 30 or 40 feet away from my chair. She vanished around the corner of the house next door, and when I walked over to see where she was headed, I saw no sign of her. I don’t know where she went.

I took it as a sign that God was nigh, and He wanted me to know that: for which I give Him thanks.
