And thank God He does isolate us when He needs to.

He „needs” not because He needs – but because WE need. 🙂

Wow, just this morning I read – ‘No one has surrendered himself to exile to such an extent as that great man (Abraham) who heard: ‘Go forth out of they land, and out of they kindred, and out of the house of they father.’ And then he was called into a barbarous land that spake another tongue.’ Step 3;20. And, ‘Exile means that we leave forever everything in our own country that prevents us from reaching the goal of piety.’ Step 3;1. Blessings. 🙂

Heh! God knows that we are sinful, wicked creatures – we turn back to our garbage for our own disaster.
