Alot of people at the end of their rope

“There’s alot of people out there who are at the end of their rope” – Rooty Toot Toot – John Mellencamp

At a church meeting last night it just hit me how much people are really struggling out there. It made me feel so privileged that I can actually save money. There are many many people who just can’t do that. Every day for many people is just a struggle to get by.

It sems that in the last few weeks I have been hit by stories of people losing their children as the result of court decisions when these people have plenty of support around them, I know of someone else who has been in hospital recently as a result of a struggle with addiction, and another couple who both have serious health problems.

The rain certainly does fall on the good and the bad alike, as Jesus said, and there certainly are alot of people out there who are the end of their rope.
