Less than an inch. Less than two seconds. How does it change you?
You’ve been so successful in your life – your education, in business, your family, your time in public service. All of a sudden, those things don’t seem to mean a thing.
You should be dead. Dead. Gone from this earth. You wouldn’t be here if the forces of nature had their way. How does that change you?
God intervened. God. God reached down and altered the universe to save your life.
You’ve always understood God as a force for good. A helper. But it’s suddenly clear that He is Far. More. Than. That. He’s the Infinitely Powerful Creator of the Universe. The Absolute Controller over whether you live or die. Power unimaginable.
Like Moses also found, He’s so powerful you cannot even look directly at His face. It’s overwhelming. Humbling. Frightening. And it means Nothing will Ever Be the Same. Nothing.
It means God has redeemed your life, the remaining time you have on earth. How does it change you?
It means you owe Him your life, your time, your resources, your loyalty. Where you have mostly relied upon your own power and resources, this sudden awareness of just how powerful God is and how much He cares about you and every other soul on this planet means that’s all in the past. In your Old Life.
Going forward, He wants you to rely on Him to guide your decisions. The people you choose to surround yourself with, the policy decisions you initiate, your personal relationships. All your thoughts, decisions and actions have a New Filter to consider.
Learning to lean on Him will require a complete change of focus. It will take time. Practice. You won’t do it perfectly at first – or ever, really. But you will get better and better at it.
You’ve been given a gift. And you’ve been redeemed for a purpose. You now realize He has a Plan for your life. A plan to turn the peoples’ hearts back to Him.
This changes everything.
the whole thing is hokey as hell.....it was allowed to happen....and if it was meant just to scare Trump then coming with less then an inch of his death was a pretty dangerous scare...plus killing and injurying others....
my husband has hunted his entire life....rifles, bows....he would admit that he would have probably missed his target at 150 yrds..he has to practice at the shooting range, and "sights" in his rifle and even then it takes a lot of concentration...
but we're told this creepy 20 yro who has never been in the service or hunted AFAWK came that close?.......very suspicious....
What you say is true, but at the same time the scenario of a second shooter from that same angle truly over complicates the cover up. There was a clear visual on the kids minutes before and during the shots. That means at least two living witnesses to the kid not actually taking aim and firing.
Secondly, there would have had to be another vantage point further back from that building, similar height and not too far away, and fully concealed position, within the reasonable AR-15 accuracy window, even for a pro to get that close to a head shot (assuming a headshot was intended).
This is called a "near miss." It happens all the time when one is shooting at a target. Bullet trajectories, as well-aimed as they can be, still have an inherent error distribution, which is random in nature. Trump turned his head and deprived the shooter of his target just as he committed to the shot. Nobody gets a point for a shot that only touches the 10 ring.
