Quite a good night

The blood pressure monitor on Wednesday night went off at half hour intervals.  However it did not beep as it had in the day time. That had been to alert me to relax my arm.  Of course at night one should be relaxed anyway.  I would have slept even better but I as curious to see what my blood pressure was like in the early morning.  The beep started up again at 7.15 a.m. but I didn't let it stop me enjoying a lie-in.  I was not due at the hospital until 11a.m. The monitor was taken off me and I was told it would be sent to the consultant and I would hear at some point what he or she thought about it.  By the time I reached home, despite all my talk of trusting in God I was beginning to get in a slight tizzy wonder if anything major was wrong.  This is how we humans react and it is silly to think I can escape those thoughts.  So if you trust in God don't be surprised if you have worrying thoughts too, and don't feel guilty about it either.

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
