You’re not good enough

In the UK you are judged

If you do not have a mortgage,

By those who have one

It seems then we’re not good enough,

Work your life just to do this

Playing by the rules and plan,

Only for you to get older

And you really can’t understand,

When your health fails

And you’re placed into a home,

They take away your home to pay the bills,

And the free healthcare that should provide for

Through the taxes and national insurance that you paid,

Maybe that simply won’t happen

Because your kids see you’re near the grave,

So they leave you to fester and die, lonely of old age,

And then argue who gets what from the will, as a part of your estate,

And all that endeavour and praise for owning your own home

Will fade away just like you, passing by into the unknown.

    You haven’t been sentenced to a life of frustration and stress. You don’t have to be stuck in your hurts, habits, and hang-ups. God has something far better for you.
    We all want peace and freedom-and the good news is it may be closer than you think. The Bible teaches that, for those who follow Jesus, peace is a mindset. If you’re not at peace, it’s your choice. In the next few months, the economy is unlikely to change significantly. Your work situation won’t change. Your broken relationships may not be healed. Mindset can be the difference
    But your change! Between a life of self-destruction and a life of peace. The Bible says in Romans 8:5-6, “Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires: but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace” Ask the Holy Spirit to give you better thoughts-thoughts that bring peace, not frustration. You need to look at your situation differently: through the lens of the Holy Spirit.
    Will you look at your life the way you’ve always looked at it, or will you look at it the way God does? Remember, the “mind governed by the flesh is death.” Choosing to look at your situation through your own lens is self-destructive. Ask the Holy Spirit to replace the self-destructive thoughts with his own. When you’ve got something negative in your life, don’t resist it. Replace it!
    If you turn on the TV, and there’s something on that you don’t want to watch, you don’t just sit there and tell yourself not to watch it; You change the channel! You replace it immediately!
    You CHOOSE what you dwell on. Ask the Holy Spirit to give you the thoughts you need to focus on. He’ll do it! He will change your perspective. And that will change your life.
