Disabled

Some of the nicest, cleverest and most interesting people are the disabled.  Today I was with a friend who had her back broken when she was a young woman in a farming accident.  A huge bale of hay knocked her down and did the damage.  She is now in her eighties and although paralysed from the waist down, she has led a full and useful life albeit from a wheelchair.  She has a positive view on life and gets on with it without complaining. Another example of a disabled person is the young Russian singer Danil Pluzhnikov.  He is fifteen but only 98 cms tall.  His legs are not strong and he can only walk short distances and when performing on stage he needs a stool to sit on for some of the time.  I find it very difficult to think of Danil as disabled because he is such a power house of energy and determination.  Because he has suffered from childhood, he understands how to express emotion in his songs and this makes a strong connection to his listeners. Look for Danil on Google Play where he has a song called Pillygreem. This means Pilgrim.  Give this young man some encouragement and download his song, just for 99p. Also I include a link to Youtube so that you can hear him for free and also see more of him in action.  He loves his country and I think he is one of Russia's national treasures.  I hope President Putin is listening to me.  We can all learn from such strong minded people who rise above their condition to make something of themselves. I am ashamed of the times when I have given in to mild depression when I should be doing something with my life even now at 70.  It's taken me a lifetime to learn this but now I am making something of my life.  To get back to Danil, in the link below he is singing about people being beaten down by others but still they rise above it and fly.  Even if you don't understand Russian you will still hear the passion in his voice.  Enjoy and buy his other record.  He deserves all the recognition he can get.https://video.search.yahoo.com/yhs/search;_ylt=AwrC5pZDkL1ZSkMA4YY0nIlQ;_ylu=X3oDMTBncGdyMzQ0BHNlYwNzZWFyY2gEdnRpZAM-;_ylc=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--?pvid=qBNzSDEwLjEv_0zcVPzN3wWEMmEwMAAAAADChiKs&p=two+eagles+daniel+pluzhnikov&ei=UTF-8&fr2=p%3As%2Cv%3Av%2Cm%3Asa&fr=yhs-adk-adk_sbnt&hsimp=yhs-adk_sbnt&hspart=adk#id=3&vid=57c4eee419cc8facbe63da71b27da95f&action=view

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
