Dear Santa...


Michael has one very bad attitude; he will get what he wants, regardless of the cost to others.  This is the message of our society; that the ends justify the means!!!  It is unequivocally, undeniably, absolutely wrong!!! Good and evil are easily identifiable.  There are standards of conduct and they are found in the Bible for all to read and learn.  One of the greatest kings of ancient Israel, David, puts it like this...

Psalm 37
  3 Trust in Yahweh, and do good.
Dwell in the land, and enjoy safe pasture.

  4 Also delight yourself in Yahweh,
and he will give you the desires of your heart.

  5 Commit your way to Yahweh.
Trust also in him, and he will do this:

  6 he will make your righteousness go forth as the light,
and your justice as the noon day sun.

  7 Rest in Yahweh, and wait patiently for him.
Don’t fret because of him who prospers in his way,
because of the man who makes wicked plots happen.

  8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath.
Don’t fret, it leads only to evildoing.

  9 For evildoers shall be cut off,
but those who wait for Yahweh shall inherit the land.

  10 For yet a little while, and the wicked will be no more.
Yes, though you look for his place, he isn’t there.

  11 But the humble shall inherit the land,
and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.

Wanting "things" is not wrong, but wanting "things" enough to hurt someone else is sinful!!!  How do I know what is right?  Trust in the God of the heavens to help you understand right from wrong; rely upon HIM and not your own worldly ideas.  If you allow God to direct your life, God will give you your hearts desire, because your heart and the will of God will be as one. You may or may not get a new bike, but you WILL BE HAPPY!!!
