Success

What does success mean to you? Is it winning the Grand Prix or Wimbledon? Is it having a high powered job with lots of money? Or do you have to be content with watching those who are successful while you can only manage a hum drum life. Is that sort of success really all it's cracked up to be? One thing is certain about those successful people their prowess will lessen with the years and just like the rest of us they will die. So should we be putting all our energies into getting a slice of this world's fame? Or should we be considering the next life? Are you ready to meet God? He is all powerful and total goodness. How can such a being accept us when we are so lacking in goodness and totally unable to meet His requirements? It sounds like a black future for us all. But Jesus has lived the perfect life that God accepts and He promises to share his righteousness with us if we will come to Him and put our trust in Him. He is the only way to God the Father. Will you put your trust in Him, believing His death on the cross has made the only way back to God? All who come will be welcomed.

Life after death

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.

Persecution of the sick in Britain

The British government, through the benefits system is persecuting thousands of people who are not fit to work, giving them very skimpy benefits. People who are not able to work for health reasons are not able to stand up for themselves. The goverment will answer to God when the suicides happen. People were treated in this way back in the Old Testament. Then exile was the result for the perpetrators. Something equally as bad will happen to those in power today. The churches should be aware that there are people in need and set up soup kitchens for these people.Many are in this position through no fault of their own. They should be helped not looked down upon.

Persevering

Sometimes it's hard to keep going with something we have started. A little setback can get in the way of trying to do something good. I want these thoughts to touch your heart and make you think things through. However as I cannot tell if anyone has read them unless you comment, I get disheartened and feel I am a voice calling in the wilderness. But who can tell who might light upon this page and be really encouraged or helped in their journey of life. If only one person was helped it would all be worthwhile. If you have been helped in any way by this blog do make a comment.I could do with some encouraging too.You can find more thoughts like these at this link A thought for each day
