Amateur Waitress: This made me Angry

Nigeria Oil spill, The Age

No more to be said!

They also serve who only stand and wait (or lie and wait!)

John Milton

SONNET XIX.

ON HIS BLINDNESS.

WHEN I consider how my light is spent,

Ere half my days in this dark world and wide,

And that one talent which is death to hide

Lodged with me useless, though my soul more bent

To serve therewith my Maker, and present

My true account, lest He returning chide,

'Doth God exact day-labour, light denied?'

I fondly ask. But patience, to prevent

That murmur, soon replies, 'God doth not need

Either man's work or his own gifts. Who best

Bear his mild yoke, they serve him best. His state

Is kingly: thousands at his bidding speed,

And post o'er land and ocean without rest;

They also serve who only stand and wait.'

Why I have hope during good times as well as with chronic illness

God is real. In his love, God sent his Son Jesus into our world to live the true life. Then to die. This was to pay for my (and your) rebellion against him. He then rose from the dead! His current life and Spirit is inside me, connects me to God as I need to be, and will raise me one day, to be with Him, forever young:) The offer is FOR YOU TOO!...'For everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.' (Romans 10:13)

If you want to know more, read some bible (eg the stories of Jesus). Why not ask Jesus to show himself to you (if he's real!)?Check out excerpts at the end of this blog. Feel free to ask me about it!
