Response to Steve's and Judy's Blog

Yes, Steve, we can all spend a lot of time trying to get more stuff. But some how we always end up with less. There are no winners in this game. And I'm sure you are right, if the son of the father who made my hand tool in the bush of the far east were to come to America, we could find him at starbucks looking for that $5 coffee. But is not that the way that man has gone since the beginning? To always want more? But in the end we are limited by our resourses, our culture, what is happening in the world of our neighborhood, and how the world effects that, and THE REAL BOTTOM LINE. What belief system to you hold on to and alow your self to be guided by. AND with all that said there are the times when we are just clueless as to what God is doing in our lives, and the pain and angish we are feeling.
I am thankful that if we are willing , the holy spirit will guide us and all our needs will be met. Often times not as we would have thought or even desired. But always exactly what was required. Nothing more nothing less.
Pray for the simple life.
When we ask for help HE is there.
