A Wii can give you some fun for a while, but for lasting happiness and a guaranteed future you need Jesus. He came on the first Christmas to be born a human baby, who was also fully God. He came because we humans were in deadly danger. Sin had messed up our lives and driven a wedge between us and God. Jesus came to live our life, perfectly and then he died so that we could be forgiven and be put right with God. Don't short change yourself with a temporary Christmas, this year. Go for the eternal worth of what he did, but your trust in him and be set for a wonderful eternity.
I have written in previous posts about disasters. In the case of Concorde, decisions by people, plus other factors were directly to blame for the event. In the case of the Penlee disaster it may have been avoided if someone had made a better choice in the time beforehand and as a consequence brave men and the ship's crew and the captain and his family died. 9/11 was certainly the result of wicked men committing a terrorist act, but even in this there was heroism notably by another Cornish man, Rick Rescorla who helped many to safety and left it too late to help himself. In situations like this we see what the human spirit is capable of both good and evil. What of disasters that come on people because of the earth restless movement of tectonic plates. Often people live near volcanoes because the land is rich and fertile and they have the chance of a better life there when the volcano is resting. We cannot blame them for that but sometimes people become complacent...
