The Majority Rule
I recently was fined $900 for cycling my electric bicyle on the pedestrian pavement. It was definitely the work of two portable surveillance CCTVs. So a full-month wage of doing food delivery would be gone. It felt like I worked for nothing. Of course, I was lawfully breaking the law. A law that was passed as a result of a handful of fatalities and injuries. A law that restricted my speed limit to 25km/h and consigned me to the tarmac where I scurried among the cars, the buses, the lorries. A law that made me always wonder if I would live on for another day. I guess some individuals would glee at my financial misfortune. The same people who were always eager to videocam offenses and preached about human safety. The majority voice who decided an electric cyclist’s mortality was of lesser value than a pedestrian’s.

For the Love of Money.
There were 10 pieces of money in the economy. There were 2 men with their families in the country. Both men worked hard to feed and care for their families. However, 1 of them worked overtime and soon ended up with 9 pieces of money. He laughed and exclaimed “I am the richest person in the country!”. The one with 1 money could now only afford to buy food and nothing else. Not long after, the poor man, to pay for his son’s ailments, sold off his land to the rich man. The rich man exclaimed “Now I am the Lord of this land!”.
Is hoarding all the wealth of the world the right thing to do? If money can satisfy your soul, a few bucks would do. Nay, use your excessive wealth to bless the poor, and follow JESUS. Only HE can complete you.
