Because the truth endures when the world forgets. The Word stands firm when everything else falls. And the glory of God — the crucified, risen, forgiving Jesus — is still shining, still calling, still healing, still saving. So look to Him. Not to the crowd. Not to the opinions of others. Look to the One Isaiah saw, the One lifted up for your salvation. Look to His cross, His wounds, His mercy. That’s the glory that matters. That’s the glory that lasts.

Everyone had their Bitcoin moment. For me, it was when I was deep into virology and politics, and then congressman Crenshaw started talking. Sagar’s commentary was as dumb as Crenshaw.
The Congress investigates, the Executive Office issues and enforces orders, and the Court legislates. And the citizens consent.
Broken system.

Met with the CFO of a large foundation with nearly $2 billion in management. Acknowledged gold is on a tear and Bitcoin has an impressive CAGR. But they’re not going to stick with equities and bonds because they’ve performed mostly well since the foundation’s founding in 1959. I said, “why not allocate 1% as a hedge?” No, he says, “I’m an old school optimist.”
We’re still early.

And hear this clearly: You don’t have to make a name for yourself. You don’t have to build your own reputation. You don’t have to chase affirmation. You don’t need to be the big-name Christian or congregation. Because you already have a name—given to you in baptism. You already have a seat—set by grace. You already have honor—because Christ has called you “friend.”

The Christian defends against the distortion, redefinition, and misuse of words for the sake of the Truth, Jesus, who is communicated through words.
When words no longer matter, you will conform the Word of Scripture to your own image... not you be conformed to the image of the Son, Jesus.
“No freeman shall be taken or imprisoned, or disseised of his Freehold, or Liberties, or free Customs, or to be outlawed, or any otherwise destroyed, but by lawful Judgment of his Peers, or by the law of the Land.” The Magna Carta, Chapter 29, 9 Hen.3. c.29 (1215).

The cost of living had begun to spiral out of control. What was to be done? Casting around, people found a life raft: shares. Every day the entire population studied the stock market listings. Sometimes some shares collapsed and thousands of people hurtled toward the abyss. In every shop, every factory, every school, share tips were whispered in one’s ear.

“The ideal set up by the Party was something huge, terrible, and glittering—a world of steel and concrete, of monstrous machines and terrifying weapons—a nation of warriors and fanatics, marching forward in perfect unity, all thinking the same thoughts and shouting the same slogans, perpetually working, fighting, triumphing, persecuting—three hundred million people all with the same face.” - George Orwell, 1984.
I’m looking for a quick explainer for how our credit scores are calculated. Does anyone have the formula?
lol.
