A wonderful reminder, nasty as it is, that should bring a few people back down to earth.

There are no greener pastures out there, you probably trade one set of problems for another, or you are feeding some kind of you-know-what addiction in the first place.

It seems to take so much longer for people to grow up now, with all the material comforts and high expectations for the “self”, and for pleasures, all in the absence of a spiritual and Christian life, so it’s a distorted combination that leads seemingly to clinical selfishness.

I just pray that it makes people take a look at their God again, and may our nation repent, renew our faith and return to our unfailing God.

Most importantly, letting go of the idea that any righteousness can be had apart from God. We can have a shadow of it, but it will be backed by the wrong attitude and any challenge will show it to be self righteousness.
