Aspects of Christmas? Three.

Debt!

Today many people in the western world are in debt and Christmas has been known to the biggest problem with the easy way to get credit!

Both the lure and the temptation to have nice things for the children and ones self is very hard to resist and thus when the time comes in six months to pay up, there is no money?

The other problem with debt, is going bankrupt, it may clear some if not all depending on the amount, but it leaves you marked as a debtor for life!

This will cause many problems for some in getting even a bank card or proper account, while also being refused a loan and many other unforeseen aspects in the financial world!

God wants us to be sensible people, trusting him rather than wanting the things of this world! One will hear many different takes on this, with some Church leaders dismissing it, as they know better?But we have really at the end of the day stay with what God wants for us and that is always the best!

Matthew 6:12,  18:24,  25:15-28,  Proverbs 22:26,  Luke 7:42. 

Marked Out?

Tats or You Tube?

Gangs were once known by their Tattoo's today it is their insulting and provoking videos on You Tube, because the mobile phone has replaced identity? Identification, provoking and insulting other to rise a confrontation is not good in the first place, but surprise surprise others who see may be tempted to come in and start their own turf wars?

God forbids those who trust in Him to mark themselves by inking, painting or cutting their skin! It is only mentioned once, and that is perhaps enough for us to get the message? The world who do not believe in God now don't care, but when you do it will cost you much pain to get them removed!

God has laws set in place, despite His unconditional love for us! He always wants the best for us to stop being silly and get on in life doing something that is responsible and caring for others!
