THIS world is "a sorry state of affairs", isn't it? Where does a person begin and end with an hypothesis?? Listened to the hour World News tonight and many Countries are suffering from a deplorable lack of colour. Let's face it - it's sorrowful; sad. There is severe trouble causing the mental pain of fatigue or want.
WHAT about man's greed (covetousness)? AVARICE. That's how wars begin. Many cases are even lamentable. WHERE is an honest mandate that represents genuine truth and prosperity? In THIS world - it's greed!
THIS view is "just a drop in the ocean", so to speak, BUT I find all the before-mentioned to be depreciating.

~ "Tea Party" .. ~
WHEN our first grandson was just a toddler, I had the joy of being his babysitter on many occasions. Routinely, about mid-morning, I would announce, "Time for a tea party," and we would sit down to Ritz crackers with peanut butter and a small glass of milk. One day Jeffie came to the kitchen sink where I was working and announced to me, "Time for loving, Grandma." Joyfully I picked him up and we shared hugs and kisses, then away he went to play. This became a happy ritual for the rest of my baby-sitting days.
I could not help but think how pleased our Heavenly Father must be when we come to Him and say, "Time for loving." This "time" is when we forget about our work and other interests and just take time to read His Word and communicate with Him by prayer, telling Him of our love for Him. We not only speak of our love, we also demonstrate it by our very act of using exclusively for fellowship with Him.
We have a good example in God's Word of one who took "time for loving." Luke 10: 38 - 42 tells of Mary who "sat at the Lord's feet listening to what he said." We hear Jesus' approval of Mary's "time for loving" in these words, "Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her."
Let us take time to tell the Lord we love Him and make time to show it.
There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven . . . a time to love (ECCLESIASTES 3: 1, 8).
