If it can be said that a God causes or permits disasters among men, then the twentieth century has to be the epitome of evil times. All the fascist communist dictators that have paraded their arrogance on our stage have been acting out the ultimate culmination of evil over the world. If we don't want it, we should not elect narcissistic mental cases to be president of the United States, and we do not tolerate the invasion of peaceful countries because they defy the selfish obsessions of former communists.
Yet it is still possible to find traces of civilization which epitomize what humans can achieve of love and piety. That the enemy should be incapacitated is obvious to those who enjoy civilized society prcisely because it fosters diversity and freedom.
Nations should have the right to choose their govenment and organize their lives in profitable pursuits, education and the exercise of divine love in the world.
It seems to me that coincidence is too random; that juxtaposed states among human beings happen for a reason, and the opportunity to choose in life is a treaure.
If the Lord offers you the opportunity to live your life as a religious life, dedicated and avowed to Him, you should avail yourself, because He does not always make His offer more than once in a lifetime.
There are planty of examples to follow in history, and a little research will turn up people suitable for emulation.
If tyrants walk the stage and strut their selfishness on the world's stage, it is a clear offer from God to act a different way and be promoted in that way with all His assistance. He died on the cross for the success of that enterprize.
May you be blessed to find the way, and may your way be like His, who has loved us so very well.
