There is a fundamental reason why things work.

Every situation is governed by the principles of cause and effect, shaped by the natural laws of physics and metaphysics. 

When failures occur, they trigger a domino effect. 

The extent of this reaction and the number of people affected depend on actions and reactions driven by incompetence, noncompliance, and violations of established principles and laws.

We understand cause and effect through empirical, observable outcomes. 

By studying history and examining past records, we recognize that truth prevails, and unsustainable practices inevitably collapse.

There is also a higher purpose at play, where the Holy Spirit connects with our individual spiritual journeys, guiding us toward our ultimate paths of salvation or damnation. 

Those blinded by their desires, who disregard intelligence and established principles, mistakenly believe that their outcomes will be positive and sustainable. 

When situations deteriorate, collapses occur for a reason; rising fears and dangers increase risks, driving away investors and destabilizing the economy and society at large.

Those who flout spiritual laws and the commandments of the Lord deceive themselves into thinking their path will lead to salvation. 

When individuals stray toward negativity, they become unrecognizable to the Lord and to themselves, making it impossible to receive the love and peace of the Holy Spirit while trapped in hate, fear, and sin.

What is your purpose and goal in life? 

If your goal is salvation, you must follow and adhere to spiritual laws, understand the workings of the Holy Spirit, and do not sin, hate, or harm.

Similarly, if you desire prosperity and peace rather than chaos, destruction, bankruptcy,  and poverty, you must adhere to intelligent economic principles, sustainability, and principled laws.

Otherwise, it will never work, at least not for long.

Love

 

“Love is patient and kind;  

Love does not envy or boast;  

It is not arrogant or rude.  

It does not insist on its own way;  

It is not irritable or resentful;  

It does not rejoice in wrongdoing,  

But rejoices with the truth.  

Love bears all things,  

Believes all things,  

Hopes all things,  

Endures all things.”  

                               – 1 Corinthians 13:4-7  

Love never demeans or harms.  

The Lord loves every child without exception.  

Love does not discriminate based on sexual identity, sexual orientation, gender, race, nationality, religion, or any other characteristic.

Despite past mistranslations in the New Testament that may have caused confusion, Jesus Christ's message is unmistakable: love is love, and it knows no hatred or discrimination.  

We must differentiate between the true teachings of the Gospels and other scriptural passages that fail to reflect Jesus Christ's profound message of love and fellowship.  

Every child must understand that regardless of who they are or who they choose to be, they are unconditionally loved, supported, and safe—not marginalized for their identity or criticized for their choices.  

If we embody love, be love, and exhibit love without judgment or criticism, then our children will know love. 

The foundations of love and peace will grow naturally in their hearts, free from hate, insecurities, and self-loathing.  

We must ask, “What would Jesus Christ do?”

Then follow what Jesus would do, by leading by example and demonstrating love in fellowship, in peace, in restraint, with patience and kindness in our hearts.

It has been nearly two thousand years since Christ walked the earth.

How close are we to embodying Christ's teachings of love and peace, the concept that the meek shall inherit the earth?

If we are not close, then how far are we?

Are we so distant as to be considered unchristian?

Have we regressed to the times of the Old Testament, where the principle was "an eye for an eye"?

Shouldn't we live as enlightened individuals filled with the love and peace of the Holy Spirit in the times after the New Testament?

Take a moment to reflect upon who you are; what kind of a person are you?

Do you stand up for the innocent and protect those in need?

Are you honest, kind, empathetic, and brave?

Do you embody honor and faith?

How would you define yourself?

💭

What do you believe the Lord would see in your heart, mind, and soul?

In times of tragedy resulting from violence, we must resist the urge to assign blame and instead focus on solutions. 

We need to take a hard look at our actions and recognize why some individuals believe that turning to violence is an acceptable response to societal issues. 

Violent rhetoric only permeates our society, leading to more school shootings, the tragic loss of school-aged children, increased domestic violence, and widespread political unrest. 

Clearly, we must do more to prevent this cycle of violence. 

We honor the memory of those we have lost by actively working to ensure these tragedies do not recur. 

It’s time for us to stand together and create real change.
