Masonry is much older than 1717. Its rites and rituals actually began amongst fugitive Knights Templars who used coded hand signs and catechisms to communicate with one another. The black and white checkered floor, white apron, gloves, and much more is derived from the Templars

“We are now passing through difficult years, and many things will happen. But whatever happens, we must not lose our peace. God will not abandon us. We must have faith in God and pray.
When a person lives spiritually, he does not become anxious about what will happen tomorrow. He entrusts himself to God. He does what he can humanly, and then leaves everything else in God’s hands.
The devil tries to frighten people and fill them with anxiety, because when a person is anxious he cannot pray properly. But when he places his trust in God, his soul becomes peaceful. Even if everything around him is in turmoil, within himself he can have peace.
Difficult years will come, but those who are close to Christ will not be afraid. The important thing is that we prepare ourselves spiritually. We should not be curious about when or how things will happen. We should be concerned with repentance, with prayer, and with acquiring Christ within ourselves.
If we have Christ within us, then wherever we may be and whatever may happen, we have nothing to fear.”
— St. Paisios the Athonite

Classic misdirection.
Look over here at the villainous character (who looks like an evil witch) and not over there at the cart full of ‘evidence’ literally labeled ABRACADABRA IT’S MAGIC!
Our attention powers The System and our belief powers The Spell, both are in short supply.

Gratitude in Orthodoxy isn’t forced cheerfulness. It’s noticing the small mercy that arrived today even while something else is hard. A warm meal. A kind word. The fact that you woke up. Naming those things out loud keeps the heart from hardening.

God wants you to read it, but 99% will skip...
Proverbs 3:5-6 Stop overthinking, if it's God's will, it will happen and nothing will stop it. If it's not, he has a better plan. Have peace in that. Not once in the Bible does it say to worry about it, stress over it, or figure it out. But over and over, it clearly says, "Trust God." God is bigger than all your worries and fears. God's plans will always be greater and more beautiful than all your disappointments. When God is all you have, you have all you need. He's got you. If you trust God, save this and come back to it when you need the reminder. Put a devoted "Amen" to enemy flee.
