It is sad to see our society in the shape that it is in as the churches took care of their own before we ever had government programs, and I believe God really takes care of those truly disabled who have been witnessed to or who know our Lord already. Angels are still out there everywhere about the fathers business. Each of us has our own judgement to worry about and if you feel so strong about this then let the holy spirit lead you to pray for those peoples conviction quickly and for their salvation to come forth. Father, in Heaven we you know you look into the hearts of all of us and Father I pray now for those who are spitefully using a false injury or disablement Lord to gain income when they are actually in good enough health to work. I pray for those people to be blessed with your Love and peace as you know Lord we must pray for the lost so I thank you now in Jesus name and we give it all to you Lord Now. Amen.
all in love KerryD.

Many see themselves as being owed or entitled and I have heard them say, that they are going to get theirs and not work for it. Some do work and still receive it. I don’t know if it can ever be totally fixed. Where money is involved someone will always try to beat the system for a free ride. Their is soooo much waste in the gov’t. The obvious ways the gov’t could save money doesn’t seem to be of much interest to them.

Like most government programs, this one is abused. Too many people are trying to take advantage of the system and laywers are willing to help them do it. If only they could see, that they would be happier and feel much better about themselves if they were contributing. I have known people with bi-polar, panic attacks, fibromyalgia, and many other ailments that live very successfully with their problems and function quite well in society. I think these people who abuse the system need much encouragement and other people to believe in them, because they don’t seem to believe in themselves.
Another thing I would like to share that is more positive is the way many of our charities and churches step up and fill in the gap more effectively than government entities. Personally, I have a brother-in-law who had polio and was helped in a major way by the March of Dimes. I have also witnessed great things through the years from the Salvation Army. Volunteering to assist the charity of your choise in whatever way you can is a terrific wasy to enhance your life, too.
