- Have you noticed that by watching the news, one gets depressed? I do. So, the remedy to that, as I've found, is to spend less time watching the news. I do have something to watch that is worth watching - the Bible and the Lord.
- Have you noticed that families are falling apart all over? I have. Kids are having kids. Boys with no fathers are hopelessly out of control. Divorce is almost as much a rite of passage as "birth, death, and taxes." I've found a remedy to this one, too -- the Bible and the Lord.
- Have you noticed the violence in America? It almost seems overshadowed by the war-time violence in the news, but Americans kill more Americans than terrorists ever have. I have a remedy for the violence as well - the Bible and the Lord.
- Have you noticed the disrespect our kids are displaying in the classrooms? I have. A high school teacher friend of mine told me about a young lady who mooned the whole class and the teacher, was sent to the office and received NO punishment because the Administration wanted to help, not punish the offender. There is a remedy to this one as well - the Bible and the Lord.
Truly, the Bible, the Lord, and faithful obedience to both will teach us how to relate to one another. Relating as the Bible says to will bring not only social peace, but peace of mind and heart. There are millions of people around the world who will testify to that by experience. Jesus is Real, and may be really known, loved, followed, and will make your life more meaningful - without violence and self-serving anger.
