The Solution!

I’m back! Most of you know this has been a hectic week for me with Jill in Texas until Saturday, leaving me in charge of the girls…so to speak. We have done well thanks to the efforts of several people who, I suppose, are afraid I will scar the girls for life! Whatever their motivation, I am grateful and hope to catch up on a couple of things that was cast to the wayside for a day or so. So, what do you think of the financial mess our world is in? Yea, it’s more than something we must deal with here in the U.S., although we may have initiated the chaos. Stock markets and economies all around the world are feeling the pain and panic we are feeling. I am not a politician, and I do not offer political advice…BUT, I do agree with John McCain, that the candidates need to stop their campaigning until this crisis is resolved, otherwise they may not have a country to lead! I have no doubts that some of his motives are geared toward political gain, but this leads me to my point. This problem we face is greater than any one man or plan. It is greater than 700 billion dollars, or any dollar amount we can throw at it. This is a problem that needs an Almighty solution, and until we seriously strive to follow our Lord, we will repeatedly face these problems. We have seen them before: crimes against humanity, financial crisis, war. So what’s the answer? “He has showed you, O man, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.” Micah 6:8.
