Hymn

10,000 Reasons by Matt Redman
I chose this hymn because it has a deep meaning and it sounds very good. Just the lyrics remind you how great God is.

"You're rich in love, and You're slow to anger
Your name is great, and Your heart is kind
For all Your goodness I will keep on singing
Ten thousand reasons for my heart to find"

This song just screams out the greatness and magnificent qualities of God. It reminds you how amazing He truly is because it's so easy to forget that.

"And on that day when my strength is failing
The end draws near and my time has come
Still my soul will sing Your praise unending
Ten thousand years and then forevermore"

It reminds you when the days get hard, when the times are rough, trust in God. Keep worshiping God when everything and everyone is against you. This song is a good reminder and just a great song to keep worshiping and signing to glorify God no matter the circumstance.

A Modest Proposal Response

There are some crazy stories and articles out there, but this one takes the cake. You know how people write long, deep poems and they mean a great philosophical meaning to a lot of people. I thought this story/letter was written with a deep meaning. At first, I was trying to figure out what the author meant by having the children be the food. Then I realize, this author is crazy. He is actually proposing to solve a problem with cannibalism. The problem is that there are too many kids being born into these poor families that cannot take care of these children. Therefore, the author comes up with the solution to sell the poor children, at the age of one, to the rich to be eaten. The worst thing about this whole thing is that the author is dead serious. This is a real problem. To try and relate this to people today is not so difficult. People have come up with excuses that support abortion which essentially is the same thing. People that support abortion are killing the child in the end and that's what this author was proposing. So don't think that this story is in "cray-cray" land. This is happening in our world, today.
