Wonder

Today I looked into my six-year-old grandson's eyes and shared the wonder of discovering the world anew.  He drew robots and lifeboats and mocked my efforts to draw like him, but very gently.  Most of all it was the look of wonder in his eyes that charmed me.  I hope I have captured some of his enthusiasm and will take it with me into tomorrow.  How foolish people are to spend so little time with children.  Parents these days are encouraged to spend less and less time with their children, because material things are seen as more important than they really are.  A child doesn't need gadgets but time to be listened to.  It's time you really made your child much more important in your life.  Find time for your child by throwing out some glitsy gadget that gets between you and seeing the real wonder of being six.

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
