What Is Most Important To Us? – “What does Jesus have against wealth and riches? Why does He say it will be hard for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of Heaven? If we work hard and make good use of our resources, we should expect—and Jesus teaches—that we will prosper. To some degree, we will grow rich. It is only when we make riches the priority that we encounter a spiritual dilemma.” – Peter Nayland Kust

Highly Questionable Conviction of Russell Brand – “I’m sure that Russell Brand was an aggressively promiscuous man during the period in question. He himself has admitted it. Thus, if he had been tried for being—at this earlier stage in his life—a selfish, sleazy, and arrogant jerk, it would probably be easy to adduce sufficient evidence to find him guilty as charged. However, it strikes me as impossible to draw conclusions—beyond a reasonable doubt—about allegedly criminal sexual behavior that took place decades ago, with no supporting physical evidence such as medically documented injuries, no eyewitness testimony of the alleged acts, and only hearsay testimony from the victims’ friends and colleagues that is ambiguous and fragmentary.” – John Leake

He also learned that the harder he worked physically, the less he got paid.” – Bill Astore

VERSE FOR THE DAY
Matthew 5:13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
IMAGE FOR THE DAY
LYRIC FOR THE WEEK
Let’s drink to the hard-working people
Let’s drink to the lowly of birth
Raise your glass to the good and the evil
Let’s drink to the salt of the earth
Say a prayer for the common-foot soldier
Spare a thought for his back-breaking work
Say a prayer for his wife and his children
Who burn the fires and who still till the earth
When I search a faceless crowd
A swirling mass of gray and black and white
They don’t look real to me
In fact, they look so strange
Raise your glass to the hard-working people
Let’s drink to the uncounted heads
Let’s think of the wavering millions
Who need leading but get gamblers instead
Spare a thought for the stay-at-home voter
Empty eyes gaze at strange beauty shows
And a parade of the gray-suited grafters
A choice of cancer or polio
When I look in the faceless crowd
A swirling mass of grays and black and white
They don’t look real to me
Oh don’t they look so strange?
Let’s drink to the hard-working people
Let’s think of the lowly of birth
Spare a thought for the rag taggy people
Let’s drink to the salt of the earth
Let’s drink to the hard-working people
Let’s drink to the salt of the earth
Let’s drink to the two thousand million
Let’s think of the humble of birth
( Salt Of The Earth by Mick Jagger and Keith Richard )
