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.

Markets continued to grapple with the economic and corporate earnings implications relating to the Russia-Ukraine conflict. “We have a ton of uncertainty right now,” said Stephanie Link, chief investment strategist and portfolio manager at Hightower Advisors. “We’re dealing with a war, we’re dealing with inflation. We don’t know what it means to earnings.” In addition, Telegram's architecture limits the ability to slow the spread of false information: the lack of a central public feed, and the fact that comments are easily disabled in channels, reduce the space for public pushback. Pavel Durov, a billionaire who embraces an all-black wardrobe and is often compared to the character Neo from "the Matrix," funds Telegram through his personal wealth and debt financing. And despite being one of the world's most popular tech companies, Telegram reportedly has only about 30 employees who defer to Durov for most major decisions about the platform. Telegram was co-founded by Pavel and Nikolai Durov, the brothers who had previously created VKontakte. VK is Russia’s equivalent of Facebook, a social network used for public and private messaging, audio and video sharing as well as online gaming. In January, SimpleWeb reported that VK was Russia’s fourth most-visited website, after Yandex, YouTube and Google’s Russian-language homepage. In 2016, Forbes’ Michael Solomon described Pavel Durov (pictured, below) as the “Mark Zuckerberg of Russia.” He floated the idea of restricting the use of Telegram in Ukraine and Russia, a suggestion that was met with fierce opposition from users. Shortly after, Durov backed off the idea.
