Times change. The wheel of fortune never stops spinning. But throughout it all, the good times and the tough ones, one thing never changes...

Be careful of thinking that you or others have control over your circumstances. You could, G-d forbid, tomorrow find yourself with terrible health issues or the loss of a job that would cause financial pressures you cannot imagine. Just as the video shows, there are good times and bad -- life is a cycle.

Well done and much appreciated.

Its nice you can afford the trip! You certainly can ( and do) take pride in your prudence! But I sense that you do not truly feel sorry for those who have lived "above their means" and in fact feel satisfied that your years of self-denial has allowed you the satisfaction of financial security. Poor Angela, you will find that all wealth is from our Creator. And no amount of planning can stave off God's will for you. "Man plans, God laughs!"

This may sound silly, but my husband and I are doing well financially. Our home will shortly be paid off, we bought a new Honda Civic LX2008, we completly re-tiled our whole house, we are taking a trip to Israel, Austria and Hungary. We do feel sorry for those people who have lived beyond their means while we have lived way under ours

Our G-D is the same now and forever, and we trusth is for HIM in all times. Shalom

Short and very concentrated, easy to understand.

Mary,
Just continue to trust G-d, soon you will be calling Him by His Holy NAME!
All blessings to you.

Do these days' headlines remind anyone else of the portrayal in Deut:28 of a nation that had been blessed with the best that the entire world hs to offer, and then has rejected the God of their fathers. The second half of the chapter describes a nation no longer sure of itself, no longer a loaning people but a debtor one, where the aliens in its midst defy its own laws, that instead of military power and reputation that 5 men will chase 50, instead, fifty will flee from five enemies (not sure of the exact number there).
Perhaps, if America atones as fully as Ninevah, this deepening vortex can be adverted. Otherwise we are living in the last days of America. No more God Blessed America, but one by one the blessings are withdrawn.

As I divorce, send off my son to college, and must place my father in a nursing home, I am finding G-d in all those who take an extra minute to give me a hug and say they understand. It is the small things in life, that end up making life bearable....and finally enjoyable. So thank you to all the anonymous smiles and prayers! They do help!

Thank you for reminding me of what is important. I've read the posts made by others and I realize more than ever that we are all in this together. So it's important to me to be available to listen, give and pray with others.
