I think he also thought, just as an egg is fragile, the world would come crashing down on our lives once our innocence got corrupted. The tower radioed back, “Sir, we’ve just received word about a shooting in Washington. There is no indication the President has been hit. Word is that two agents are down. That’s all we have right now. But I’m going to make some calls and see if I can get some more information.” The punishment for these alleged spies was designed to send a clear message back to Israel: “We’re not stupid.

Sometimes life hands you a cherry and sometimes someone else has eaten the good parts and you are handed the pit. It was a picture perfect day. The flowers were in bloom and their aroma was so sweet. It was a hot July 4th day in the Nation’s Capital. The President was attending a fund raising event at the Washington Monument.

“I love the LORD, because he hath heard my voice and my supplications.” Psalms 116:1
