Do you ever wish you were rich and famous. I used to have a vain dream that I would be a
concert violinist!! I do play the violin
but not really well. I used to teach it
to recalcitrant children, some of whom were pushed into it by their doting
parents. If I really look at the life of
a concert violinist I realize I would not have been happy. There is the constant practice and the
travelling to different venues. It would
tend to wreck family life. There would be the continual pressure to play to a
high standard. To succeed you would have to make a god of your music and where
would that leave room for the one true God.
No, I am glad I have been a mediocre violinist and gradually over the
years I have learnt to put God first though there is still room for me to
improve in this. Beware of having an obsession in your life which keeps you
away from God.
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.
