This is really an economy of want, greed and covetousness. Instead, let us take lessons from nature and develop the Giving Cycle – a GIVING ECONOMY.
I was just reading these words of Jesus and it got me thinking: “You are the salt of the earth, but if the salt has LOST ITS FLAVOUR, what will it be salted with? It is then good for nothing, but to be cast out and trodden under the feet of men.” It got me…
Just imagine if ALL the evil elites were arrested, charged and dealt with – all the evil politicians, bureaucrats, and the like – what would the world be like? Would we have peace and harmony… and freedom?
Well, by studying human nature, I don’t think it would be too long before we dig ourselves another hole. It wouldn’t be long until greed, pride, prejudice and politics poke up their ugly head. It is all part of human nature. “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.”
Isn’t it true, that the more lights you turn on in a house, the less darkness there is. DUH!!! Pretty obvious, eh?

All the days of the desponding and afflicted are made evil by anxious thoughts and forebodings… Learn how God’s word can help you overcome those anxious thoughts… “My son, attend to my words; consent and submit to my sayings. Let them not depart from your sight; keep them in the centre of your heart. For they are LIFE to those who find them, HEALING and HEALTH to all their flesh.” (4:20-22)
