Lack of restraint
Proverbs 29:18 NKJV Where there is no revelation, the people cast off restraint; But happy is he who keeps the law. The appalling sight of people marching into a shop or supermarket, brazenly helping themselves to whatever takes their fancy and walking out, without being challenged. That is happening daily in our towns and cities. Theft is being overlooked. Yesterday, in Parliament, the Prime Minister ignored the challenge to open a national inquiry into the Grooming Gangs, c

Matthew 6:28-34 NKJV "So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; [29] and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

Shall we indeed accept [only] good from God and not [also] accept adversity and disaster?” In [spite of] all this Job did not sin with [words
