We Need to Turn Things Around

Wouldn’t it be nice to be rich? And there are different ways a person can count themselves as being rich, such as being rich in spirit, but usually a person thinks in terms of money. When a person thinks in terms other than money, it is a good thing to be rich in other things besides money. Money really can’t buy everything.
Now getting back to the basics of money. You really need to value money for what it really is. A person really only needs enough money to buy essentials for life; like like food, shelter and other necessities of life. And granted, in some poor countries these necessities of life are not there.
I believe the United States has been blessed as a nation because as a nation we have declared our belief in God and He has blessed us in a like manner. We have strayed away from our core beliefs and are reaping those efforts, but it is not too late.
I have strayed away from what I was trying to say. You probably have heard that the average person in the United States has lost 40 percent of their net worth since Obama as been in office. I don’t think that is an accident. It has been done on purpose. When Obama ran for office he made no secret he wanted to do just that (take from the rich and give to the poor). When I think of that scenario, I think of Robin Hood. In that case, the king would take from the hard working peasants and Robin Hood tried to change that. Obama is no Robin Hood.
Now getting back to the subject of being rich. Do you realize the average person in the U.S. would be rich in the eyes of the average person in the world? Obama and other people like them would have you be equally poor like the average person of the world. Wake up, America, and believe in the God of our forefathers and get this country back where we need to be. The Bible talks of a New World Order and I think we are well down that path I hope and pray we can change things around.
