Quick Gospel

1 Timothy 6:17-19
17 Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment. 18 Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share. 19 In this way they will lay up treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life.  

Thought:
Not much for writing about politics and stock market.  And some please share your thoughts about this as well.  Just trying to see if I am on the right thoughts or not from this text today.  Two groups of people come to mind with this though.  Politicians, and stock brokers.  After the last few days this is all that you are hearing about.  What if, just what if these groups actually abides by this scripture!!  I really do not think all around us would seem like gloom and doom if these factors were not hanging over our heads each and every day.  It seems though that these two factors are the ones that get discussed more than any others though.  To me that's what needs to change.  All we can do to help them is to pray, and that is what I urge all of you to do.

Prayer:
Lord it has nothing to do with campaigning, or S&P numbers.  It is all about you, and today I just pray that you reach those that need it from Washington to NY and all elsewhere.  My constant pray is for understanding to come to all people in charge to be just that, in charge.  Of there own households.  it is not one side or the other that needs it more, they all need it the same.  Whether we agree or disagree they are in charge and need to know that we are praying for them. Amen.
