To Rule the Night

To Rule The nighttime by throng B. Irwin slope 10 2/14/09 As we flew into space we had a smart sense of ourselves, of the earth, and of the nearness of God. I sensed the beginning of some f all in all apart of deep change taking place inside of me -James B. Irwin The authors purpose in the spirit, To Rule The Night, by James B. Irwin, is to inform the rarityorser of his life, particularly his trip to the moon and how God opened doors for him to shargon the battle cry with thousands of community. Also in his carry he talks or so his childhood and how his father was a big Air force addict which influenced him to link the military.He also talks ab pop out what happened when he got back to Earth, most all the interviews, and the famous Postage stamp incident that occurred between the caboodle and a German stamp dealer. (64)to show that our good postal at decennaryd delivers any place in the universe, I hold the pleasant assign of only whent endceling , here on the mo on, the first off stamp of a new sales outlet Dave went on to sell all the new stamps to the German stamp dealer. I believe that he did achieve in informing me on his locomote to the moon and his life.I did enjoy this declare also I theory it was encouraging how he was saved, (60) certainly God had been watching over us that day. I guess this volume was meant for who ever was reading it because of all the elicit details, any kid could be interested in because he talks about living in zero Gs and how you eat with no sedateness. (24) solely food containers were labeled A, B, C, D, E, and all meals were color-coded. So if a meal floated by and you identified it as red, you could say, Hey Dave youve lost your entree. Also for an adult because of the actual report card of it the fact that he went to the moon and the maturity it was written in. It was appealing horizontal from a Christian stand point because no matter where you are God can work in you. Well I believe the me ssage I got from it was that God is everywhere and loves us enough to get out the moon and all the stars. One of the themes that I spy was he was a hard worker and was a respectful person. But I notice a fight in him after he got saved he was happier and was looking for opportunities to share the gospel.Well a element that contributed to the theme has to be the vastness of space, because how can you go into space and not realize how fantabulous God is if this is just what He made. The purport of the book seemed to be a very devour filled life. He did well in towering school, spliffed the military, went into the air force, became a pilot, joined the space program, went to the moon, and became a revived Christian. Well while reading the book some elements that helped me identify the tone was the detail everything was described, (48) Of course, you are constantly dodging carrys and craters.You hit a rock and you are literally airborne. You just bounce into space, float for a while, and accordingly come down. I think first of all the authors purpose, like I said before was to inform us of his adventure, and the tone just goes on with it. He seemed to be a well educated man with long imagination and ability to retain facts, individual moments and tell it back to you so that you felt like you were right there with them. (33) I wish we had such things as drops in space, but without any up of down, water doesnt drop out. It just makes a blob, and the blob just keeps on acquiring larger and larger. The vocabulary was not hard to understand almost anyone could have read this book sincerely. But at the same time it wasnt to simple to were you thought the book was for a child, (127) My new home was a rambling wooden building up on the hill that moldiness have been the old officers quarters back during World War 2. in that location rattling werent any unusual qualities, except that the way that the book was written. It started out with his journey to the moon, then his childhood and worked its self back up. The book had oft detail and really did a large(p) affair of spying my attention.Also I enjoyed reading this book because I thought I was on the moon. But it wasnt just that that caught my attention at the end of the book was the best part to me, (200) There were 5000 in the audience, with the floor and aisles jammed absolutely to capacity. I had a terrible stomach ache, and I asked the schoolmaster to give me the right words and to give me strength. He really answered my prayer. about a hundred people came forward, and I felt that we had enjoyed a capital experience. Well, I think that, if you mean James B Irwin when you say subjects, he accomplished a lot in his life.That his life is an example that you can go to the moon and god still not be do with you. (203) I have a sort of clarifying sense of uncover Gods plan for my new life on earth. God has permitted me to live on top of the mountains, and when I have been cas t down, He has brought me back on the tops of the hills again. Being able to give my testimony before people without fear, to share my spiritual voyage and to ask them to accept Jesus Christ, has been a tremendous experience for me. He seemed to emphasized in the end of his book the importance of his wife and there relationship with God. 205) The whole experience in the Holy land was the most inspiring to way to turn the inlet of the old year into a new year for High Flight. The experience moved us and gave us a chance to rededicate ourselves to for each one other as a family and to our mission. Well since the book was a lifespan there were many environments, when he was in space, on the moon, coming back, all the press, his child hood, his marriage problems, sharing the gospel round the world. But, something I noticed was he was never prideful or self centered, (180) Frankly I do not care for all the fame and publicity. A historic detail was, (18) We knew that if we cleared t he tower we had reasonable chance of survival if something should go wrong. I watched all the systems I was responsible for on my side of the spacecraft. We cleared the tower. It was almost the happiest moment of my life to realize that after all those geezerhood it was now my turn. At last I was leaving the earth. I think that it has a major effect on him, (43) There was a frenzy of exploring a place where man had never been before, but the most kindle thing, that really moved me and touched my soul, was that I could feel Gods presence there. Something that I learned from him was that his NASA training was hard and he almost dropped out, (180) I had been so programmed I was like a robot. I had to eat, drink, sleep, and dream my work- I had to be saturated. When I told Mary that I might drop out of the program I learned from him, when he didnt drop out, I learned that you have to persevere threw hard times. I want to join the Navy and I know that its going to be hard but it was herd for him and his wife, but he didnt drop out or give up. The only main incident that he brings up in the end of the book was his relationship with his wife.He talk about how much happier they are together and that God has really helped them grow together. (205) Mary is a lot closer to me bow that she has been-we have both changed a great deal, and she is tremendously reinforcing me. It reveals that when it comes down to it none of his experiences matter to him, just him, his wife and God. (211) Mary, you know, is the great nurse I could ever ask for. And she took care of me the way she did ten years before, after the crash. It has been an ideal relationship since I got back subsequently reading this book I would say that God is great because, James Irwin had grown up in a Christian home but, never truly followed Christ until he went to space. Afterward, you see a huge difference in his life, and a growth of sincerity with his wife. I learned that I shouldnt let my achievement s or pride get in the away(p) of my walk with God. And I think that James Irwin does a great job of setting that example. I chose this book because I was curious to what it was like to go to space and how it would affect someone if they did. Plus I didnt really know too much about the Apollo missions and what they did.Some ways that I relate to him is my stubbornness he was stubborn to his physical welfare, and im stubborn about my points of views. He told the press in his book that he never was physically fatigued while on the moon, but I remember him expression that he was on EVA2. Another way I relate to him is that he loved to fly. James B. Irwin wrote that he was depressed when he had his first high temperature attack because he couldnt fly. I liked this book and really enjoyed reading it. I wasnt too excited at first about reading a biography. But, it turned out to be a great book.A couple of reasons I like To Rule The Night was because of the detail he used to describe goi ng to space, and how the book was geared toured God and trusting Him. One of my favorite parts of the book was when he described the living conditions of living in a no gravity environment. I like it because its different and unique its not something you would find in any book. I wouldnt change anything in the book it is well written and has much detail. I think anyone that is interested in the experiences of few, and how a Christian is suppose to live for Christ, would like this biography of James B. Irwin.
