One only has to look in today's newspaper to realize that there is something wrong with this place we call home. Floods, famines, disease, murder, rape, death, death, death and more death. Then on the other side of the coin you have wealth and health. These are the people that have their view focused horizontal. By this I mean they don't stop look up and stand in awe of this massive universe. See you have to realize that there is more to life than work, work, work, and money and fighting with your spouse, the list goes on and on.Stop for one second and look up. Realize the massive creation and then say to yourself...is my problems and my concerns really that important when it all boils down to it...Think about this....a man just spends half a million dollars on a brand new house, greed runs his life..all he can think about is millions and millions of dollars..the day after purchasing his new home he drops dead from a massive heart attack...gone. Just like that..See you come into this world with absolutely nothing and you are going to be leaving it empty handed as well. All you hold dear in life..family, friends, your job, your materials, all of it will be ripped from your hands when the cold hand of death knocks on your door.Is it really worth stressing over..or consider this...a man and wife get into a fight the husband yells at her, leaves, slamming the door behind him..she breaks down in tears and he leaves tearing up the street only to come to a halt as a tractor trailer collides head on and kills him instantly. No goodbyes and "I love you" no last words of comfort only the icy cold hand of death. A murderer, a rapist, a robber or anyone else who commits crime. Is it really worth it? The long arm of the law snatches you from your "life" of crime and throws you into prison or jail. What were to happen if you suddenly died in there..what a great way to spend the last of your life. See friends the point I am trying to get to is this....LOVE...it is the only answer to these issues we face. Millions of dollars are spent towards the stupidest things..such as sports entertainment..golfers getting paid millions to put a little white ball into a hole....as the ball drops into the hole somewhere out there a body is being dropped into a hole as well..dying unnecessary from starvation while these people lavish in there brand new cars and fancy outfits which of course won't be going to the grave with them...maybe an outfit but besides that...People need to get over themselves and start living the way God wants us to live...shelter the homeless, feed them,care for the orphans and widows...LOVE..stop worrying about petty things that don't matter...it's not worth it...We need to stop this horizontal viewing of the world and start a vertical life or we might not have the life we want after death...Remember this is not our final home and as Christians we are aliens to this place..this is foreign to us. "My kingdom is not of this world" Jesus once said, so as Christians we are not of this world..we need to start acting like it...get over ourselves and start living the life that Jesus told us to live.."If you claim to live as He did,then you should walk as Jesus did." Let's get it done....LOVE is eternal.It's all that matters in the end.
God Bless you all
