Wars and Rumours of Wars

  What should we ordinary folk do when we hear of wars and rumours of wars?  Jesus said we should look up because our redemption draws near. We feel helpless in these situations, unable to influence our governments.  We feel like pawns in a game, but if we look up to Jesus and ask for His wisdom in what we do we can use prayer and trust in God, who is working out His will for the best even when it seems not to be the case. The ability to sort out the mess in the Middle East is with God alone, so let's trust Him to work out His purposes.  The super powers think they have a solution but only God has. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not unto thy own understanding.  In all your ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct thy path." Good advice for us all, small or great.

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
