Whizzing along

Do you notice how many people say that time is whizzing along faster than ever?  "Where has this year gone?" they say. Now I remember my parents talking like that, but we as children found that time was very slow especially in term time, but even the six weeks of the summer holiday had a leisurely feel to them as if they would never end.  But today even the children think that time is passing quickly today.  I think it may have something to do with technology. We spend so much time on computers and phones that we don't have that time in the evening when we used to sit back and relax. At this moment I am gulping at a cup of tea and staying on the PC when I should be sitting in an armchair, sipping slowly and mulling over the happenings of the day. I should be savouring life and giving my brain the chance to unravel the tangled yarn in my head.  I guess if I did that I would sleep better. I'm going to be sensible tonight and not see the ten o'clock news.  I'm going to just sit and think.

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
