"The 'Groaning' Of Creation"
Sort:
That same 'sermon' can be referenced, on the 'Web'.. And, being a little 'unsure'..{read ignorant}.. Of the 'posting' rules & 'regs.' .. My Main point, I guess, was to get people 'thinking'.. As opposed to, one of the More popular 'contrarian' beliefs.. That our universe - Is, and long-since-has-been .. Somehow, out of 'God's control. ..N-O-T !
I won't troll you. Hope you enjoy the thread buddy. Who knows you may be right ( you're not) .
Believing, in a Missing concept{?} ..Or {perhaps}, Not!?

Forward - You may've noticed, that this post, has 'Creation's Groaning'..{for hopefully, something Better, {implied}.. As, its' Main theme. -- With that, in mind.. A Good, Web 'mining' source, for that genre`.. Is to 'News' page search, under 'Struggling' - Whence I found, the following 'pasted' article!
Twice a week we publish problems that will feature in a forthcoming Dear Jeremy advice column in the Saturday Guardian so that readers can offer their own advice and suggestions. We then print the best of your comments alongside Jeremy’s own insights. Here is the latest dilemma – what are your thoughts?
I’m in my mid-20s and struggling with my career choice. I graduated with a degree in physical geography a few years ago and ever since I’ve felt lost. After a year of job searching I got a graduate role as a geotechnical engineer. I felt a bit of a fraud and not really qualified for the role. The job was a high-pressure one and the working conditions added to my stress. In just two years of working there my friendships suffered, I was exhausted, seemed unable to stand up for myself and became something of a wreck.
I did the best thing I could think of and went travelling. I was lucky to get a new job at a local authority within a month of returning to the UK, but three months on I feel bored by it in comparison to my old job.
I’ve been thinking of retraining to work in the merchant navy but am struggling to find the confidence to start somewhere new and worry about the application process, coupled with the prospect of taking out a loan for something that isn’t guaranteed to pay off in the long term.
What can I do to stop feeling like such a worrier, and be able to enjoy my life and make use of my qualifications?

'Linked'.. under, a 'Groaning' theme?! ..In the sense that, being made 'happy' by 'things'.. Is as common.. as it is, ultimately UNsatisfying! o:

Introduction
The radio, the newspapers and the television bring us reports nearly every day of earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, droughts and famines, and other such catastrophes.
There was a report not so long ago that one and a half million people died in such natural disasters from the year 1950 to the turn of the century and the beginning of the new millennium. There is evidence as well that such disasters are increasing.
According to one newspaper there was a three-fold increase in the number of earthquakes from the 1960's to the 1990's.
Scientists and those who are supposed to know speak of great changes in weather patterns, of global warming, of holes in the ozone layer, of El Nino, of the melting of the polar ice caps, things that concern not only the climate but the whole future of the planet on which we live. We cannot help but take notice of such things.
But, beloved people of .. etc., etc. etc. ..{anymore, would arguably be 'Overkill'.. for this 'bb'}. o:
