BETTER TIMES?

Okay, I have read Psalm 4 three times. I am NOT getting the connection between what the psalmist says and what the Wall Street connection is. I DO know that the ups and downs of life are troublesome and many. I do know that many are now struggling with the downs and do not have the wherewithal to cope with them. It is for these that I am concerned. The people experiencing homeless situations right now are many. How do we help them?

There isn't an easy answer. It is hard to look this kind of need in the face and know what to do. We give what we can. We offer what we have. Is it enough? Probably not. Is it necessary for us to make the effort? Yes. Can we do more? Probably.
