First of all, I don't really believe in “luck.” I believe in God. 

A passage in Romans 8.28 in the New Testament says very well what I have come to believe:

“And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.”

Note that it does not say that God causes everything to happen. I don't believe that the God who is Love in any way is the cause of evil in this world. He created the world and set things in motion. As I understand it, He gave us free will, the power to choose in our lives. And He set natural law in place, like gravity. 

Sometimes, everything working at the same time converges in what some might call serendipity to create a moment in time that is just right, or what many call good luck. Random, seemingly coincidental adversity or misfortune is conversely called “bad luck,” and some people seem to have more than their fair share of it. 

I think we all play a big part in whether we experience good “luck” or bad. Often, our choices play a big part in how our lives go. In recent times, there is a concept worth noting, that if you play stupid games, you often win stupid prizes. It's a way of saying that if you do stupid stuff, you should probably expect stupid results. It has been really highlighted in word and video as “Darwin Awards,” where the dumbest things are done and result in horrible consequences, some of which might ultimately remove the “dummies” from the gene pool of the human race. 

One facet of my life that I lean on is summed up in the acronym KISS - Keep It Simple, Stupid! Yes, every now and then I refer to myself as “stupid.” Stupid is as stupid does. Don't be stupid. Don't do stupid stuff. Think! 

And Keep It Simple! There is some safety in simplicity. 

The more exposure you have, the more you put yourself out there, the bigger target you are. It's expressed somewhat in the little saying, "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and to remove all doubt." 

Along with all of that, go ahead and take chances, calculated risks, because you might just “get lucky!”

“Good luck,” which I don't really believe in, and just in case, GOD BLESS YOU!

In a case of guilt-by-association, Vice President Vance is under attack because he has a friendship with Tucker Carlson, whose views can be described as conservative, wacky, or antisemitic, depending on the topic. At the same time, Marxist Muslim Democratic Senate candidate in Michigan Abdul El-Sayed has been attacking Vance’s family. 

If this is all they have against him, he’s a shoo-in for the 2028 Republican presidential nomination. In the final analysis, however, Vance should be judged by his record and reputation. It is sterling. He is a patriot and family man. His critics have made fools of themselves.

What to do about Fetterman? He appears to be the last real Democrat still standing. All of the other so-called Democrats are really socialists who want a one-party government that they run. John Fetterman still wants to reach across the aisle and work with Republicans in the creation of bills. They have ostracized him to the point that he appeared at the Republican National Committee supporting the Republican Senator from Pennsylvania. Provided the Socialists in the Democratic Party don't lynch Fetterman, he should be a Republican by November.

This week, the U.S. Senate will vote on the CLARITY Act, which would create federal guidelines for digital assets and establish sensible regulation to help the industry sustain future growth. This will enable the next generation of financial innovation to prosper in the United States.  

I like communicating with people. I'm a pastor, speaker, and author, but most people say I do much more than that. I communicate, or at least attempt to communicate. My goal is to connect the message with the audience in an engaging, creative way, creating a shift in beliefs and behavior that uplifts people and equips them for life.  

Unlike conservative officeholders, who often leave after one or two terms to return to the private sector, the left’s politicians mostly stay put, which means they are much better at playing the long game. We, the voting public, had better start realizing how this reality impacts us going forward.

Bishop Robert Barron is an engaging and provocative speaker. I enjoy his sermons. But one of his mentors, Bishop Fulton Sheen, would not approve of his claim that Stalin’s communism is dead. Sheen is the key to revitalizing the Catholic Church and making it into an essential cog in the machine opposing the eventual victory of communism over the West.  

What a waste, NASA is going to junk the International Space Station by dumping it into the ocean, just like they did the Skylab space station in the 1960s. The only part of the ISS that has been a problem is the Russian pod, which has leaked from the very beginning. The Russian pod could be filled junk and jettisoned toward the Sun. The entire station could be reconfigured and modified to serve as a base station for the Moon or for Mars. Or maybe NASA could give the ISS to Elon Musk who has the smarts to repurpose the station. The alternative is destroying the station and surrendering the space above Earth to the Communist Chinese, who will most certainly arm their space station with offensive weapons and hold the Earth hostage.
