Some people make New Year's resolution, but how long does it take before they break them. We humans are a fickle lot and often can't keep the easiest of promises. God is not like that, He always keeps His promises. He promises that if we search for Him with all our heart we will find Him. He has promised us forgiveness if we put our trust in Jesus and what He has done by dying on the cross. He has made the only way back to fellowship with God. Make it your resolution this year to search after God with all your heart, strength and mind.
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...
