Nature teaches about the economy of abundance, giving and generosity. Not like our Market Economy promotes scarcity in order to regulate markets with supply and demand. 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.
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?
Well, shouldn’t that be the same for us believers in this dark world? The more believers who have their lamps burning brightly, the less darkness we would have. So then, why should the darkness, and the powers of darkness scare us?
This morning I read: “Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the land.” (Matt 5:5) Who are the meek? Those who are gentle and do not retaliate, because they know that God will vindicate for them. They do not try and protect or fight for their own rights. Their hearts are settled and confident in God.
