I aim to grow a group of like minded people through Video Games but, also aren’t shy of sharing and discussing our opinions with out being cancelled.
God is our Helper and Keeper.
Psalm 121 says two great things about God. The first is that God is a helper (vv. 1–2). Every one of us stands in daily need of God’s help, and over and over again the Bible tells us that God is ready and eager to help us. It isn’t just our eyes that look around for help (v. 1): “The eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth” to give help to those in need (2 Chron. 16:9). “Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you” (Isa. 41:10). “Behold, God is my helper, the Lord is the upholder of my life” (Ps. 54:4). “The Lord is my helper; I will not fear” (Heb. 13:6). We will not always be aware of exactly how and exactly how much God is helping us. We walk by faith, not by sight. That’s why God repeatedly tells us that he is helping us. Even in those loving reminders, he is helping us to believe and trust.
The second thing Psalm 121 tells us about God is that he is a “keeper” (vv. 3–8). That word “keeper” is wonderfully full of meaning. As it is used here, it basically means “protector.” But as the psalmist reaches his triumphant conclusion, he speaks of the fact that God will maintain this protection “forevermore” (v. 8). In other words, he will “keep keeping” you. God will “keep” us in all our comings and goings in this lifetime and through all eternity. It is on this basis that Jesus says, “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand” (John 10:27–28). Standing on the same ground, the apostle Paul tells us that nothing—either in life or in death—can really harm us and nothing can separate us from the love of God in Jesus Christ (Rom. 8:35–39). The Lord is a keeper, and he will be so forever.
When I think about what I really need from God, for this life and the next, it is hard for me to imagine anything greater than these two things that God happily is for me: my helper and my keeper.

What do you think the current Line 5 has done for the past 73yrs? Be just used for private profiteering while also utilizing “public” infrastructure to do so?
It’s there to provide energy resources to the UP from the mainland peninsula. You shut that down your half way to starving and freezing your fellow Michiganders in the UP to death. Where the roads are less then reliable during the winter & Wisconsin will most definitely charge an insane amount to try and send energy in from their side of the UP.
Now we get to the why shutting it down is a good thing.
It’s a good thing to shut down the existing pipelines because they’re part of an aging system that’s getting harder & more expensive to maintain. As it crumbles there’s the potential for the lines to burst and spill into our already contaminated lakes making matters much worse than they already are.
However the good things of shutting it down do not out way the necessity of providing efficient and safe energy resources to the UP. Not to ...
