When a nation follows God's rule, they prosper.
They are blessed with imaginitive ideas on how to improve their living conditions.
They come out of poverty.
They are given comforts to make them happier.
But it is greed, selfishness, and class distinction that ruins the plan.
Pride in one's self is dangerous, because to have self pride, you are putting others below you.
Soon, those that do not have as much as you are looked upon as trash, uneducated, and worthless.
When that happens, then we are taking for granted all the rich blessings bestowed upon us.
We were not meant to live in a poverty-stricken world, but to have what was needed to make it though life in happiness.
When we abuse that right, then we are in the wrong.
It is not wrong to have possessions, and feel comfortable in life.
Our Heavenly Father wants us to be happy, just like my dad tries to help us out by buying Marybeth new clothes and such almost every other week.
What we do with that gift is determined whether we are good Christian people.
I guess I don't have to say any more, because I can assume that you see my perspective...
