The World in a Mess





I’m sure no one would disagree with me when I say, “ The world is in a mess.” But how should we react to this?  It is so easy to sit comfortably in front of the T.V. and because there is the need to protect oneself, to calmly eat tea whilst watching the most awful scenes. A large dose of denial helps one brush it all aside as happening a long way away. However problems are coming home to roost.  Migrants are invading our borders and expecting to be assimilated into our own countries.  Who is responsible for all the chaos in the world?  We all are, our collective sinfulness causes all these problems.  The Western world is responsible for grabbing more than its share of the natural resources of other lands and thereby causing the poverty of millions. The chickens are definitely coming home to roost. However many migrants are not a drain on the country.  There are many immigrants keeping our health service, in Britain, from crumbling.  The government are talking of bringing in a law that says after immigrants have been here six years, if they have not reached a certain level of pay they will have to leave.  Obviously they have not thought this through properly as it would mean us losing thousands of nurses. Always, it seems, the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.

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
