Who can save us?

I'm flabbergasted at what is going on in our world. Actually I'm pretty miserable about what is occurring.

We are in the grip of a credit crunch. There is a fairly constant message of doom and gloom filtering through to us from the media about the economic climate. 12 year olds are fathering children. It would appear (if this case is not in isolation and I fear that it is not) that many other children in that age range are experimenting sexually. The media are vying for the rights to film Jade Goody's tragic last days on this earth.

What is happening? This week I watched the 'Who Do You Think You Are' TV programme about Rick Stein, and learned that his mother, who had an adulterous affair in the 1930s, had her children removed from her custody by the Courts as she was considered unfit because of her indiscretion. I am not suggesting that we must return to those days, but I do wonder what has happened between then and now.

Our sense of family and our wider sense of community is falling apart. Worse still, no-one seems able to do anything about it. Sometimes it feels like nobody cares.

Let me ask you something. Do you care? Are you happy with your family life? Are you delighted with the community spirit where you live? Then what are you going to do about it? We could just sit back and wait fr God to act. Rest assured there will come a time when God will put everything 'right'. But He also equipped us with everything we need to solve whatever the world can throw at us.

Don't believe me? I have a link to a manual on how to solve the world's problems right here - www.biblegateway.com

Reading this manual, and fully understanding its message is the only answer. Give it a chance!
