Abortion

When it comes down to it abortion is humans killing a new precious little life. Many argue that the fetus, as they call it, and the baby,as I see it, is not viable until a certain stage. This is nonsense. The baby is designed to survive because it is in the protection of its mother's womb. Most abortions are intefering with this natural sequence of events that leads to the birth of a precious new child. We are all conned by cries of,"What about the mother's rights?" The baby should have equal rights with the mother. Most abortions these days are not on medical grounds but because the mother wants a convenient life or she is frightened and not given the help she should be given to take another way forward in the situation. At one end of a hospital we have women having abortions and at the other women having fertility treatment. There are also far more people wanting to adopt than there are babies put up for adoption. So called medical reasons for abortion include testing babies for tunnel vision which gradually worsens through life. These are precious people who can lead a very good life even in later years. I have a friend of 70 who has tunnel vision. She has enjoyed her life and is still very active and enjoys playing indoor bowls. The abortionists are saying that her life was not worth having. Of course what really matters is not the mother's rights or even the baby's rights, but what God requires. God's law puts it like this,"Thou shalt not kill." We are required to go God's way. Some people say that the Bible is full of terrible things, such as women with child being ripped open. This happens every day in our modern cruel world, but done under clinical conditions. We have made no progress since those biblical times. One result of this slaughter of the innocents is that those reaching the end of life who never spoke out against abortion, are facing an old age where there are not enough younger people to care for them. What goes around comes around.

How do you cope with depression?

There are two main types of depression, reactive, which is a reaction to your circumstances and endogenous, which is a part of your makeup and not entirely affected by your circumstances. I get the second type. When I am depressed I like to sleep a lot, this is probably not a good thing as depression can lift if you do not have extra sleep. It is all very well knowing that , but acting upon it is another thing. Exercise is also beneficial. Some sorts of depression can be lifted by taking these measures, but some people need medication. You need to get to know your doctor and develope a relationship with him/her where you feel you can trust their judgement. Do look for help as there are lots of possibilities out there. It is not good to spend long stretches of time on your own. Talking with other people will often help lift your spirits, especially if they are people who have gone through this experience themselves. Maybe you need to join a self help group. Avoid people who tell...

Section A

I've posted off my work for section A. Now to get on with B. Onward and upward as they say. It does feel good to have completed A, progress is being made.I think my tutor is more nervous than I as to the outcome, but then I am his first student. We are learning from each other.But then that should always be the case. It's an adventure we go on together.The course seems to be suiting me alright but I feel there are a lot of potentially excellent local preachers out there who are put off by the study. Something should be devised to include these good people, we can ill afford to do without them, especially as the numbers of ministers is dropping. What did Wesley do? You don't need a degree, or even A levels to preach. You need a call, and a close relationship with God.

Reasons to learn a new language

I have been learning Russian for about a year.  There were times when I felt like giving up, but   something would come along to cheer me up and I redoubled my efforts.  But why do this at 70?  When I had already started learning I heard a programme about dementia and apparently learning a new language, it is claimed helps to put off the onset of dementia.  So there, indeed, is a good reason. It is one thing to learn to read and write a foreign language but speaking it and understanding it when spoken is another thing.  So how do I help myself with these things.  One thing I do is to listen to Russian on my phone.  Even when it is in the background I believe my brain is receiving it.  Just as a baby learns to speak from being surrounded by the spoken word in the home so if I listen eventually it will have a good effect.  I have the Bible recorded in Russian.  I was brought up on the Bible and know quite lot of the Bible and so ...
