30 Youths may become faint and weary,
and young men stumble and fall,
31 but those who trust in the Lord
will renew their strength;
they will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not become weary,
they will walk and not faint.

| Thank You, Lord, for sending Your eagle over me, Hallelujah! |
President Trump Does Some Last-Minute Christmas Shopping - The Last Refuge:
Gifts for the American people…. lol
Is it ‘revanchism’–or defending the canal from any threat as the Treaty stipulates?
It’s the same old, same old: they take him literally, but not seriously. This anti-war, anti-empire President is not going to invade Panama.
In fact, PDT is liberating BOTH nations from the Chinese/Deep State UNI-GOVERNMENT.
You’re welcome De Nada!

“In The Path Between the Seas, acclaimed historian David McCullough delivers a first-rate drama of the sweeping human undertaking that led to the creation of this grand enterprise.
The Path Between the Seas tells the story of the men and women who fought against all odds to fulfill the 400-year-old dream of constructing an aquatic passageway between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. It is a story of astonishing engineering feats, tremendous medical accomplishments, political power plays, heroic successes, and tragic failures. Applying his remarkable gift for writing lucid, lively exposition, McCullough weaves the many strands of the momentous event into a comprehensive and captivating tale.” …….

The Last Founding Father: James Monroe and a Nation’s Call to Greatness
by Harlow Giles Unger: Prologue:
“Washington’s three successors–John Adams, Thomas Jefferson and James Madison–were [despite Revolutionary greatness] mere caretaker presidents who left the nation bankrupt, its people deeply divided. its borders under attack, its capital city in ashes. Monroe took office determined to lead the nation to greatness by making the United States impregnable to foreign attack and ensuring the safety of Americans across the face of the continent. He expanded the nation’s military and naval power, then sent American troops to rip Florida and parts of the West from the Spanish, extending the nation’s natural defenses to the Rocky Mountains in the West, and the rivers, lakes and oceans of the nation’s other borders. …
Monroe’s presidency made poor men rich, turned political enemies into friends, and united a divided people as no president had done since Washington. The most beloved president after Washington, Monroe was the only other president besides Washington to win re-election unopposed. Political parties dissolved and disappeared. Americans of all political persuasions rallied around him under a single “Star-Spangled Banner”. He created an era never seen before or since in American History–an “Era of Good Feelings” that propelled the nation and its people to greatness.
Secure about America’s military and naval power, Monroe climaxed his presidency–and startled the world by issuing the most important political manifesto in American History after the Declaration of Independence; the Monroe Doctrine. In it, Monroe unilaterally declared an end to foreign colonization in the New World and warned the Old World that the United States would no longer tolerate foreign incursions in the Americas. In effect, he used diplomatic terms to paraphrase the rattlesnake’s stark warning on the flag of his Virginia regiment in the Revolutionary War: “Don’t Tread on Me!””…….
Remind you of anyone?
ps; Troy Brewer teaches that as we enter the New Kingdom Era, we will not wallow in fear of the future or cling to nostalgia for the past. We will flow with the Holy Spirit as our God does a New Thing in His New Day, Hallelujah!
Isaiah 43:
16-21 This is what God says,
the God who builds a road right through the ocean,
who carves a path through pounding waves,
The God who summons horses and chariots and armies—
they lie down and then can’t get up;
they’re snuffed out like so many candles:
“Forget about what’s happened;
don’t keep going over old history.
Be alert, be present. I’m about to do something brand-new.
It’s bursting out! Don’t you see it?
There it is! I’m making a road through the desert,
rivers in the badlands.
Wild animals will say ‘Thank you!’
—the coyotes and the buzzards—
Because I provided water in the desert,
rivers through the sunbaked earth,
Drinking water for the people I chose,
the people I made especially for myself,
a people custom-made to praise me.
