The centrality of money, to produce money, for the purpose of existence, is a loss for the world.

There are evils, wickedness, cold greed, etc. every day because of money.

Many people that seem admired because they got money drive the wrong inspiration because they already peaked.

Luxury sometimes is a loss. Entertainment sometimes is a distraction.

In the wards of incurables, in the fields of complex conflicts, in the lack of regard for life of the impoverished or disadvantaged, in the disasters of communities, in the brain of the addict, in the situation of tragedy without traceability, in the misleading power of misinformation, etc. what counts for a life or lives is not money or its trappings – if it is the cause or part of the problem.

Same way they could not see the future, so is it hard to say what Heaven has for those who’d make it.

It should be known that after creation, the LORD did not want to destroy the world.

The LORD has tools, including astronomical, to destroy the world in a twinkle – and no one can escape.

The Creator, at instances, was angry – and rightfully so.

Jehovah often found someone or people to show mercy to, keeping the world running on that covenant.

From the history of the world, some people were lost, and some found mercy.

There are judgments deserved that would not matter the amount of love available to an individual.
Christ died for all.

Regardless of how hard it is to understand, or feel, humans are too limited and life is too problematic to find permanent saving in anything.

The smartest of leaders, people and governments have made strategic mistakes through history, refusing to see, just ahead focused on money, power, etc. of the moment.

Christianity is also a way to accept life’s hardship and one’s fragility.

Troubles can come, but learning to define it, fighting in prayer and accepting the Hope of Glory is important.

There is so much in pursuit by many – or all, as part of what makes life worth living, but it is good to double check with history.

At the end of everyone’s life, the past can be lost, or can be gain. [Acts 12:1, Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands to vex certain of the Church.] [Acts 12:2, And he killed James the brother of John with the sword.]
