WHY WAR?
here are many superficial reasons given for a country to go to war. Some are to get more land, to advance democracy, to free an enslaved people, etc.. I will tell you there are only two reasons that nations go to war. One reason is to protect their way of life and the other is to advance their way of life. Greed and the lust for power drive the aggressor nations sense of duty drives the others. Both are proud of their countries. Both have to have a unified populace. Without the traits that prevail in both neither type of nation would survive.

So many times through the years I have heard “follow your heart” or ”do what your heart tells you”. How many of you know what God says about the heart of a man or a woman? In this day and time everything is so sweet and mushy and everybody can just follow their heart. Well God’s view of man’s heart is all together different than that and if you want to walk with God you have to know the truth about the heart.

How to be happier in 10 days
As I have said in the past, the human brain works much like a computer works. If I design a program that reaches a conclusion that 1 + 1 = 3 then I will continuously get the same conclusion until I fix the problem with the program. So too, the thoughts that we have; they are the product of our programming. By changing your programming you will change the thoughts that your mind produces. This means that we can be happier without changing anything around us.
