Attacked and Back

If you’ve missed reading “Dr. Dan’s Monday Morning Memo” the last two Mondays it’s because our web site was attacked and we’ve been down for awhile. We are back until the next attack. Unfortunately we live in a society where some people take great pleasure in attacking others. A friend recently endured a rumor motivated tongue-lashing by someone who lacked the mental capacity to attack a computer web site. A colleague has been victimized by the spreading of half-truths by people with half a brain. My grandson has been bullied by a first-grade classmate who may well grow up to attack computers. Where do you go to avoid such attacks when it seems all the good hiding places have disappeared? Jesus must have had similar experiences, causing Him to say, “In this world you will have tribulation (distress or suffering resulting from oppression or persecution. Webster); but be of good cheer. I have overcome the world” (John 16:33). I confess, some attacks make being of “good cheer” difficult. But with the assistance of one who has the incredible ability to re-build web sites, we’re back and will “Memo” again – cheerfully.

Join me in praying for these global concerns:
