(Two symbols of Japanese autumn)Miracles in Reminiscence
This spring a great earthquake hit southern China, taking 80,000 or so lives.
Then, the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games was held amid desperate protests of Tibetans.
(There were some signs of ill presage, since two Japanese, former Olympic-gold-medalists in the female marathons could not join the race in Beijing due to bad physical conditions they had suffered in screening races as well as in the preparation training.
Anyway, their absence in the Beijing Olympics race could be regarded as tendering Japan's condolences to Chinese victims and their families of the Great Sichuan Earthquake.)
At the end of the summer, Mr. John McCain’s campaign grew in popularity along with his nomination of a female governor for the vice-presidency.
But, in September, Lehman Brothers went bankrupt, followed by a drastic change in business and management on Wall Street.
Consequently, Mr. Barack Obama’s campaign regained momentum.
Everybody is now anticipating that Mr. Obama will be elected as U.S. President while the global stock markets have fallen into the doldrums where China cannot act as a savior, since it is yen that is appreciated higher than any other currencies, including the U.S. dollar.
In summary, the God looks like having given strong warnings against China, Wall Street and the global money market, and the U.S. Presidential Election.
After all, China would behave reasonably, Wall Street would behave reasonably, and the next U.S. President would behave reasonably.
Then, the year 2009 will not be so bad.
Accordingly, I may further study the glory of the God to be manifested in the near future, no matter what manner Jesus Christ might perform His advent in.

That is all for today.
Jesus Christ actually said that you did not have to be rich, since a man who became rich turned to be a servant of the Devil without exception.
Therefore, nobody must try to earn big money in the money market.
Yet, you may be allowed to earn very small money in NYSE or TSE as long as it is truly a very small amount of money, say, such as a dollar or two per day.
(Personally I like this song, since it is called "La Mer" which is French, isn't it?

Mar 10:29 And Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel's,
Mar 10:30 But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life.
