If you were to look up synonyms for the word ponder you would find such words as meditate, contemplate, reflect. Sometimes we need to be told to stop and consider what is really satifies. In the Bible it reads, “thus says the LORD of hosts: “Consider your ways! “You have sown much, and bring in little; You eat, but do not have enough; You drink, but you are not filled with drink; You clothe yourselves, but no one is warm; And he who earns wages, Earns wages to put into a bag with holes.” The bible also gives direction on where to find real satisfaction. Jesus shares this in the book of John, “I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.”

When I am swimming in the ocean I often dive under the water and open my eyes so I can see my surroundings. The problem is though when I open my eyes everything is blurry. Now when I take a diving mask with me and put it on and open my eyes under water everything becomes crystal clear. In a similar way the Bible makes it clear for us to be able to see our standing before God apart from Jesus Christ. The first half of Romans 6:23 reads, “For the wages of sin is death”. That reveals to us our desperate situation speaking of future separation from God. Thankfully the rest of the verse reveals something else we need to see, “but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

The National Post reported recently regarding a roller coaster that derailed in an amusement park in Stockholm Sweden. The roller coaster derailed at a height of about 25 feet. Police said the tragedy left one dead and nine injured. Did you know that in the Bible, in the book of Matthew Jesus illustrates a future tragedy in which he shares the cause and outcome. He says, “But everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall.”

In an article put out recently in the journal of Neuroscience it was noted that for most people seven to nine hours of sleep is ideal. It was also noted by one of the researchers that, “anything below six hours… pretty consistently, except for a small minority of people, can demonstrate problems in cognitive function and reaction time. In the Bible in the book of Matthew Jesus shares about the importance of rest although he is not talking about sleep. He says, Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

Do you ever wonder if you have access to something of value that has been made available to you but you have never recognized it? I came across a story of an elderly lady in France who had a painting hanging above the hotplate in her kitchen for many years that she decided to sell when she had to move. The painting ended up being sold for 26.3 million dollars. God has made something of infinite worth available to everyone of us that we need to recognize. John 3:16 reads, 16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

Recently Fox News medical contributor Janette Nesheiwat issued a warning regarding the number one weather related killer. Heat is the number one weather related killer and a person would be wise to address this reality by not being exposed to too much heat and drinking lots of water in the summer. Did you know the Bible has a warning for all of us. We read in Romans 6:23, “The wages of sin is death” and that warning is very concerning, meaning eventual separation from God. Thankfully in that same verse we read that “the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Here the Bible not only provides the warning but also the way to address the warning.

Recently a 10-year-old girl survived more than 24 hours after traveling down the wrong path in the Cascade mountains and became lost. Thankfully due to the diligent work of a number of people who came to the area to help with the search the young girl was found before something tragic happened. Did you know that the Bible speaks of two paths in life making us aware that choosing the wrong one is tragic? In the book of Matthew it reads, “Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.

Recently an Australian snorkeler was attacked by a crocodile off the Cape York coast. When he was attacked he realized his head was inside the mouth of the crocodile and was able to pry its jaws open far enough to get his head out. The individual was then attacked a second time but was able to push it away with his arm which was bitten. The snorkeler survived. Did you know in the Bible there is a warning against an attacker, but it is not a crocodile but rather greed. In the book of Proverbs it reads, “There is a generation whose teeth are like swords, And whose fangs are like knives, To devour the poor from off the earth, And the needy from among men.”

Prince Edward Island has the greatest concentration of lighthouses of any province or state in North America. The warnings these lighthouses have provided have inevitably saved numerous lives. Warnings are concerning but of great value. The Bible has a warning for all of us. We read in Romans 6:23 That, “The wages of sin is death” and that is very concerning, meaning eventual separation from God. Thankfully in that same verse we read that “the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Here we have not only the warning but also the way of escape. We are to trust in Jesus resulting in turning from our old way of doing things and following His ways.

According to a survey addressed on CTV news, those whom are doing remote work, 47 percent are finding it hard to disconnect from work during vacation. Romote work has it benefits but it makes it harder to disconnect. Sometimes disconnecting is a good thing but in the Bible, when it comes to connecting with God, it is desired. In the book of Psalms it reads, “ O God, You are my God; Early will I seek You; My soul thirsts for You; My flesh longs for You in a dry and thirsty land Where there is no water. So I have looked for You in the sanctuary, To see Your power and Your glory. Because Your lovingkindness is better than life, My lips shall praise You.
