August 14, 2010 – Nehemiah 4

I know the people working on the walls reminded me of those working on the levees in 93, so I was also reminded of the fact that that levee was destroyed by a saboteur that year.  Someone that either lived upstream or downstream destroyed the levee on the West Quincy side and created a huge flood on the Missouri side.  Here, the men find out about the threat and strengthen their guard.  I don’t know how security was on the levees, it was obviously not good enough.  But let us keep in mind that even when there is unity and strength, there are always going to be those that are opposed.  Nothing is ever 100% unified in this world.  Sometimes the unity of a good portion of the people may leave us more vulnerable because we lose our alertness.  Let us never drop our guard to the one who will never stop tempting us.
