Consequences [ Joshua 7 ]

There is a saying that no man is an island, we are all connected one way or another,so what we do always has consequences. When we hear of a death of one person we often fail to appreciate ,that death may affect many people. One good act be it ever so simple can affect many people, in Johns gospel we read of a young boy who gave his tiny lunch, to Jesus, the result 5,ooo plus were fed. The same applies to a wrong deed, which can have a devastating affect on so many, destroying whole families, even nations.We are in a recession caused by people acting wrongly, not thinking or caring about the consequences, what we do always has an affect on others,so when we are tempted to do wrong, think of the consequences. [Dear God grant us the grace to always do the right thing, help us to resist temptation, remind us of the consequences of any wrong deed , in Jesus name Amen ]
