V: Good morning, Don.
D: Good morning, Vicki:
V: Did you see this morning's sunrise?
D: No, I missed it.
V: God really painted a beautiful one this morning.
D: Today's Power for Today reading is about "atheists" (or those who don't believe in God).
V: Yes. Sometimes they "belittle" (or make fun of) those of us who believe.
D: The author says that during World War II, when there was so much "devastation" (or destruction) caused by the German forces, even atheists prayed.
V: He says that the "dreaded" (or feared) German airplanes "took their toll" on people's courage.
D: A "toll" originally meant a price one paid to enter a road. So "to take the toll" was the action done at the beginning of the road by a person at a gate.
V: I see. Here the expression means "to take away" from the men's courage.
D: Exactly. The author also says that during one battle, the group of soldiers were pinned down to "hastily dug foxholes." What do you think that means?
V: Well, to "pin down" means to trap. A "foxhole" during a war is a big hole that soldiers dig to protect themselves; and "hastily" means "very quickly."
D: In other words, the men were trapped in their foxholes.
V: Right. It was in that foxhole where the atheist began to pray to God.
D: I suppose he saw his own "impending" (or coming) need for a Savior.
V: The lesson for today is that no one really is an atheist.
D: And we should not wait only until we are in trouble to pray.
V: Let's make it a daily habit.
D: Well, see you tonight.
V: Have a good one. |
