I live in Great Britain, a prosperous part of the world. Here I am considered to be poor, but I don't feel poor. I have everything I need and am content with what I have. I enjoy "making ends meet." But the greatest secret of my contentment is that I know Jesus. As I have him, what more could I possibly want? This attitude is summed up in some words of the apostle Paul. In 1 Timothy 6 verse 6 he says,"Now godliness with contentment is great gain." I am not holy myself but I have Jesus and He gives me His holiness. You will never find contentment in money or the things it can buy, instead come to Jesus and receive the contentment He gives all who put their trust in Him.
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.
