My Mum's birthday

If she had lived, my Mum would have been 99 today. She died in 2000, just making it into the 21st century. She was a very good wife and mother and if you wish you can read more about her in the link below. She and Dad were christians and brought us up to love God and trust in Jesus. All three of us are still believers. A mother is a very important person, so much depends on her how her children will turn out. If after they grow up, you rarely see your children that is not necessarily a bad thing, it may just mean that you have done such a good job, they are fully independent individuals. In the present financial climate children often live at home because they cannot afford a house of their own. This can put enormous strain on the parents who are reaching an age when they want a bit of quiet. Always in life we have to adjust to different circumstances. Life does not continue always on the same path.

Life after death

When we lose a loved one it is natural to wonder how they are faring in the next life. I would warn against going to a medium to find out. At worst these people are charlatans after your money, the rest misguided or worse. We are told in the Bible not to try to reach the dead. The best person to call on in this situation is Jesus. That's right, go to the top. He is always available through prayer and doesn't make a charge. All he requires is that you look for him with all your heart. He has the answers to all of life's difficult questions.

Persecution of the sick in Britain

The British government, through the benefits system is persecuting thousands of people who are not fit to work, giving them very skimpy benefits. People who are not able to work for health reasons are not able to stand up for themselves. The goverment will answer to God when the suicides happen. People were treated in this way back in the Old Testament. Then exile was the result for the perpetrators. Something equally as bad will happen to those in power today. The churches should be aware that there are people in need and set up soup kitchens for these people.Many are in this position through no fault of their own. They should be helped not looked down upon.

Persevering

Sometimes it's hard to keep going with something we have started. A little setback can get in the way of trying to do something good. I want these thoughts to touch your heart and make you think things through. However as I cannot tell if anyone has read them unless you comment, I get disheartened and feel I am a voice calling in the wilderness. But who can tell who might light upon this page and be really encouraged or helped in their journey of life. If only one person was helped it would all be worthwhile. If you have been helped in any way by this blog do make a comment.I could do with some encouraging too.You can find more thoughts like these at this link A thought for each day
