Comfort, comfort my people*

I hinted about something awhile ago and now I think it is official and okay for me to let you know that DN has been offered/accepted a job at the University of Illinois–Champaign-Urbana campus and that he and daughter #2’s little family will be moving there in the new year!

It is a mere 181 miles from St. Louis! We are so excited and happy and grateful.

Well done, Nate!

In other news, the world continues to go to hell in a hand-basket. In the meantime here are some excellent and timely reads on:

The desecration of man;

Why the HR mindset can’t condemn genocide;

and, yes, the moral rot starts at the top.

Well, as Anne says, in order “to sleep at night, and then to get through the day without descending into madness, I have to keep [current] events as they unfold very much at the periphery and not dwell on what I do see for very long. I have to keep moving, lest I be swept away on a tide of anxiety and horror.”

So look up, see the light, hug your family, read your Bible, go to church, and keep praying.

And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. (John 1:14)

*Isaiah 40:1
