Seeing past the clouds and trying to reach for the light

Two weeks and counting...no money coming in yet. I really hate this job. Yet I can now see from the people around me that they are making the best out of a bad situation. You really have to see past the clouds of adversity to know what's really happening. Sometimes though this is hard to do. You have to take a deep breath, hold it and let it out slowly...then and only then does the sky above clear.

I remember my brother's wedding day vividly. It was a beautiful clear fall day....a bit warm...but not hot...just like today. He just celebrated his 8th wedding anniversary today. They are facing some clouds in their horizon now. Money just got tighter for them. Being still relatively young, the light will shine quicker for them. Old eyes dim too quickly. Old hands struggle to reach the light.

I am feeling my age today. My eyes have been acting up, and I attribute that to the long hours I spend staring at the computer screen. It really can't be good for me...yet my job seems to require me to do so. Just like the government now seems to require you to literally "splash" your most intimate personal information all over the Internet! Gosh....what is the world coming to? I don't want the government to have my personal information and I especially don't want them nosing in and telling me what I can and can't do with my own body!

I am surprised that so many people are embracing this. I have to ask myself why...Why do you want the government to know everything about you? Isn't it enough that they know how much you make, where you work and the color of your hair and eyes? Do they really need to know about your body and what doctors and hospitals you use?

I am trying to see past these clouds of government dictatorship and control. It's very hard. Lord knows that it is in his plan. I don't understand it now....this soon coming together of the world's resources....and the eventual rise of what the Bible says is the Anti-Christ. He is, I suppose, my contemporary...and is even now prepping to take over the world. I feel his time is very soon. So, I must urge you to reach for the light now. Time is growing short.....
