Re: Wikileaks' Leaks Vis-A-Vis Stolen Personal Diary.

I cannot help comparing the Wikileaks' leaks to a person having his personal diary being stolen  by someone else.  If this is so the victim has the right to file criminal charges against the culprit for theft and unlawful use of personal data and information from the diary. Even among family members a personal diary is a very precious and higly-guarded personal documentation of one's thinking, feelings, musings and reminiscences.  You know what it is like if your so-called personal identity has been stolen by someone! Furthermore how will you feel if you know the thief has a history of convictions of criminal acts like breaking into homes, attempting rapes, etc.  Of course such acts cannot be condoned!  The full force of the Laws should be enforced! Full stop!

Year 2011 - God Watches Over You.

I fully agreed with Joe Stowell's meditation in the  Daily Bread on 31 Dec 2010 in which he said that you could see best the hand of God in the rear-view mirror.  Looking back at the more than 60 years of my life that had zipped past I can indeed see the hand of God in my childhood, schooling days, my working and adult years and my senior life. He had carefully and meticulously put me  in situations and environment that He Himself knew best; of course there were joys, blessings, pain and sufferings all rolled in one.  He knows best and He reigns! He is Immanuel - God with Us! He is faithful to me and my family! In Matt.28:20 He said: "And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."  God has a plan for everyone; in Jer.29:11 He says: "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." With God watching over us and his fatherly help ever present we can walk ever confidently into the New Year 2011. Never believe the soothsayers or the stars; God is our Guiding Light!
