Hope

It's a funny old world that we live in. I mean look around, the rich get richer and the poor are, it seems, never richer. Yet one could argue that back in English history the poor were worse off, and yes I would agree today we have medicine and a better standard of food, housing and work conditions. But there is still a divide between those that have influence and those that do not, like me.

Todays newspaper headline once again details the rich getting richer, unlimited expenses for the Lords... superstars crashing expensive cars and writing off as a "nothing" expense.

Well, I am not rich, nor am I a superstar. Famous people, it appears, are able to live outside the law or hire people to get them off the hook. I could get upset, or depressed as life here on earth is at times tough. But I do not, for I look outside the human box of life on earth to view heaven. God claims to be the perfect judge, that all will be dealt with. So I look up in faith to God, to Jesus and say to him, Yes Lord I give them to you, all that have hurt me, or will hurt me in the future. I trust that you are able to do what you claim, for I know that as I live and breath on this earth I am too small to make a difference to the injustice I see.

Why get upset over things you can not change? Give them to God.

You may not believe in Jesus but he believes in you,
