Scripture: Proverbs 15:3
"The eyes of the LORD are in every place, Watching the evil and the good."
Commentary:
When authorities shut down the flow of information, outside actors sometimes step in to restore communication. People will go to great lengths to stay connected, even risking their safety. This event in Iran shows how modern technology is part of a larger struggle over truth and control, echoing biblical patterns of surveillance and hidden works.
