It's pretty ironic that the bridge named after the creator of Americas national anthem collapsed today, just as this entire country is collapsing before our eyes.
"Francis Scott Key wrote “The Star Spangled Banner” and its initial verse on the back side of a letter while watching the large American flag waving over the fort that morning. Back in Baltimore, he continued working until he had completed four verses (only one of which is commonly known today).
After a local printer issued the song, originally called “Defence of Fort M’Henry,” two Baltimore newspapers printed it, and it spread quickly to various cities along the East Coast."

The irony in the bridge collapse today
"Even through the darkest days, this fire burns, always."
The pessimist complains about the wind
The optimist expects it to change direction
The realist adjusts the sails

If they lost all power an knew they were out of control, why didn't they just drop the anchor to stop the ship. Same with the ever given 3 years ago.
Praying and having faith may have done something.
Mark 4:37-40
"And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full.
And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?
And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?"Break Addiction Today
