How often has God made grasshoppers His armies! An atheist in his blindness indeed insists that this speaks slanderously of God. But this is God’s greatest honor, that no mosquito in the universe can move without Him; for outside of God there is nothing that can say to Him: “You do your thing, I’ll do mine.” God says to him: “You are a zero as soon as I cease to operate in you and for you.” And this applies equally to the archangel as well as the smallest frog, yes, the tiniest mosquito, the tiniest mite and moth. Truly, this is a most blessed teaching! A person who has rightly comprehended it goes through the world in an entirely different manner. He sees the dear God everywhere with the eyes of faith. Part of a Christian’s makeup is that he does not walk through the world like a cow. A Christian, walking through a meadow, sees the hand of God everywhere—how He beautifully clothes the lovely flowers, how He places power into grain, so that man and beast are sustained by it.

NEWS Since its launch in 2013, Telegram has grown from a simple messaging app to a broadcast network. Its user base isn’t as vast as WhatsApp’s, and its broadcast platform is a fraction the size of Twitter, but it’s nonetheless showing its use. While Telegram has been embroiled in controversy for much of its life, it has become a vital source of communication during the invasion of Ukraine. But, if all of this is new to you, let us explain, dear friends, what on Earth a Telegram is meant to be, and why you should, or should not, need to care. A Russian Telegram channel with over 700,000 followers is spreading disinformation about Russia's invasion of Ukraine under the guise of providing "objective information" and fact-checking fake news. Its influence extends beyond the platform, with major Russian publications, government officials, and journalists citing the page's posts. The S&P 500 fell 1.3% to 4,204.36, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 0.7% to 32,943.33. The Dow posted a fifth straight weekly loss — its longest losing streak since 2019. The Nasdaq Composite tumbled 2.2% to 12,843.81. Though all three indexes opened in the green, stocks took a turn after a new report showed U.S. consumer sentiment deteriorated more than expected in early March as consumers' inflation expectations soared to the highest since 1981.
