Why The Misery?

01-31-13  Why the Misery? 

The past week I deliberately watched 29 religious TV programs. I now need a psychiatrist. WOW! I use the word “deliberately” because I hoped to be able to make a thought out statement, concerning just what may be wrong with our current down in the mouth national attitude.

 I learned how to give away enough money to get a Rolls Royce by Easter. I also learned how to make my wife happy. Ha! Several assured me that the biggest problem is the President of the U.S. The President assured us the problems belong to the former President.

One program was at the Tilson Auditorium at ISU, so the Great Blonde and I went to hear an author share an excellent message on how things got this way. I had trouble trusting his line of reasoning, for while he has earned degrees running out his ears, and is wonderfully thankful for all he has learned and earned (In the mega millions), he stated concerning an at least embarrassing moment at a hotel with a student half his age and his wife in faraway state, “I did not have any idea that it is seen as wrong in Christian circles to be engaged prior to being divorced even though separated.”

This comes from the former president of a major Christian College. 

Thus today’s verse 1 Corinthians 15:19, “If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.”

Hab. 3:17-18 Although the fig tree shall not blossom, neither shall fruit be in the vines; the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and there shall be no herd in the stalls:
Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation. Pursuing happiness is tough in this life is tough even if it is our right. Some people seem to forget we pursue it against Gods abiding curse on this world. We are going to a future with no curse. If this life is as beautiful as it is under a curse, wow, what will tomorrow hold ?! Good thought, Bro.

I've always been amused at TV preachers who present giving as the solution to money problems, then end the show by announcing their own money problems. But instead of giving, they beg for donations!
