Having money tends to make you less reliant on God. But money is never to be trusted. It can disappear over night. However our heavenly Father can be depended upon at all times. I know what it is like to wish for a windfall of money, but it is such a foolish wish. I have enough so why want more? It is one of the big lies of the devil to make us think that money will bring us happiness. Keep trusting in God, He will never fail you.
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...
