This is a photo from our recent flight into Panama City; the Panama Canal is in middle of photo. It really is an amazing feat of engineering. No less amazing (at least in my mind) is the story of how Yellow Fever was mostly eliminated from the Canal Zone through simple measures to control mosquitoes.

The Panamanians have an expression, “El Canal somos todos” which could be loosely translated as “The Canal is everything.” On this Easter, let us remember that Jesus is everything!
