There is dear reader a perception that one can exist inside of this life without affecting another person. This view, I believe comes more out of hope that actual truth. In its hope we can act with impunity. Safe in the belief that nothing we do actually causes anybody else any problems. Yet in truth, we must admit that we are part of the body politic. Whatever I do brings change and affect to other people. I am part of all that I have met, and they are part of me. Then hundreds of thousands, I have never met have been changed because I exist. Like the gravitational forces, which exist upon all bodies, my existence brings change to the direction and life of others. I leave things behind in other people's lives, and I gain from them in return. Obviously with many this influence may be small and somewhat insignificant, but with some very powerful. So, dear reader, since your life does affect another person. I put it to you, we are responsible to live our lives as best for other peopl...
It is apparent, dear reader, in most continents of the world kings and queens are not what they once used to be. Where once total power rested in their hands. Many now are just figure heads of past glories. Given the many atrocities which had been carried out under the banner of this king or that Queen, it is not unreasonable to be in the situation we are presently residing. Yet the limiting of absolute power from the former sovereigns of this world has not prevented the abuse they used to carry out from being visited upon us by others.

The monarchy indeed became the true Shepherd. Sadly with the lessening of the monarchs power the ability to protect the flock has also gone. Our mistake can come when we apply our knowledge of huma...
Dear Reader, too many are in bondage. Some to physical ailments, not of their own making, others to drink, drugs or similar things. Some simply to ways of thinking. We would find it strange to discover one who had a physical ailment unwilling to accept care and cure from those able to offer it. We watch with sadness as many held by drugs will not and sometime cannot call out for help. Yet for those held by ways of thinking, they have a simply resolution, Ask!. If you do not understand something, ask. If any would seek knowledge, and knowledge of God and from God, one merely needs to ask. Yet many are scared, falling to a false sense of pride, or concept of being ridiculed. Yet we must be better than this. Doctors do not mock the sick, and ministers of the word will not abuse those seeking. The desire to add knowledge for the better understanding of God is the highest of motives. Take courage Dear Reader and ask!
