“Do not remember the former things, or consider the things of old. I am about to do a new thing” (Isaiah 43:18-19a). The prophet Isaiah proclaimed this message from God to God’s people who were now in exile in Babylon. As exiles, all of their identity, power, and glory has been stripped from them. The Jerusalem temple (the sign of God’s presence for them) is now in ruins. Their hope is barely a flicker. In this time of desperation for God’s people, God wants the people to remember that God has delivered them in the past. “Thus says the Lord, wh...
I cannot imagine a more optimistic and exciting thought than going to heaven and spending an eternity with God. For those who have accepted Jesus Christ as their savior, this divine promise is a wellspring of joy which confirms that our trials cannot be compared to the glory that awaits us. We should be inspired to fasten this covenant vow to our bathroom mirror so that every morning we can be reminded of God’s love and rejoice for the opportunity to not only know him in this life, but to w...

Power Outage by Jayme L. Job April 8, 2019 — A massive power outage resulting from vandalism was reported on this day in 1948. Five North Dakota cities, including Mandan, Glen Ullin, New Salem, Judson and Almont, were left without power for about 45 minutes on the evening of April 6. Al Yates, the local company manager of Montana-Dakota Utilities, found the outage to be the result of a vandal armed with a .22 caliber rifle. Using the insulator off a power highline north of Mandan as target practice, the anonymous assailant succeeded in b...
As I drove home the other night, I was happy to note that spring appears to be gaining ground and even might be winning in this power struggle it seems to be having with winter. The sun was low in the sky, turning the sky above the horizon a beautiful blend of pink and orange. The v-formation of geese in the sky was also a sign that the promise of spring was not too far away. However, it was the water standing in a field that caught my eye as the beautiful sunset was reflected in the flooded fie...

For more than a decade, the jury duty scam has remained one of the most successful impostor schemes. Fraudsters not only get a quick payoff, but also may gather enough personal details for future identity theft. It starts with a phone call and a claim that you face imminent arrest because you didn’t report for jury duty. The call may seem authentic, with your caller ID showing a phone number for a courthouse or law enforcement agency. The scammer may even cite names of actual law enforcement officials and judges. The aim is to startle you i...
