A country that is governed by its national army can never be morally free and, therefore, its so-called weakest member can never rise to his full moral height.
I implicitly believe in the truth of the saying that not a blade of grass moves but by His will. He will save it (my life) if He needs it for further service in this body. None can save it against His will.
