This article is not suitable for atheists. Speaking of the situation (Social Crisis, politics, food, economic) we go through in Venezuela
How to achieve to have / feel peace so much chaos? How to act normal? How to be good? In life there are situations that can not be controlled, they have no explanation and seem to have no solution and suddenly something happens, something that can not be controlled, nor has an explanation. To that we can not explain and cause us pain, we call wrong and what we can not explain and causes us peace, we call it good, and that good we call God.
Throughout our life and for centuries for humanity, we have always told us that humanity is evil and must be destroyed, and that will come the end of the world. We are told that those who do not believe in God will die, and this constantly repeated, but to our head, it's hard to understand that we will die. As someone who loves us can say that we will die but we are with him. How they say the world will end soon if everything remains the same. Or how we will die if it's something obvious. It's obvious. Those are questions that arise.
Why such insistence? If everything is equal, people die and it is no secret to anyone. But death, violence, hunger, war there, and as they there must be something to end that. But we do not question that must be resolved, but we blame the being who must save us and commands us to say that we will die but we ENL him. It's something difficult to understand and explain. There is evil in the world, but there is also goodness.
But what is good, what is bad. I, being a mere human being might know that I am good or bad I am. What is goodness, what is evil. It is also said that the religious war because God is not God. We ourselves know what is right or wrong. Why we are killing, physically or spiritually? I have no answer because there are so many answers, but none enough for us. We found no answers.
Everyone at some point we heard about Jesus, "Messiah" who would come to earth to be the ultimate sacrifice for our sins. Not only say they spit, they were murdered in the most cruel way for the time, if not before speaking of God and of things to come, more evil and then goodness. This message has spread around the world, some die from it, but that does not make it more valuable. Are we near or far from the truth? Something we do know is that we want to be happy, to live good, that no illness or problems, and the message of Jesus was that there is hope for this to change. There are people who go to Mass every Sunday, or call themselves Christians, but really know, really know what is good and what is evil. For me, death is bad, but for someone else may be the opposite.
The idea is not to apportion blame or say that one religion is better than another, religion must be a leguaje to reach God, or say that a person is good. A not for us to judge but to abide by laws, but laws are not met. If you've tried everything and it has not worked, at least try to know the story of Jesus as a man. Even on the Cross, or crucified, they said to Jesus, "You are the Son of God, save yourself" and the answer (at least that's the story we know) "Forgive them Lord for they know not what they do" If god made us in his image and likeness we can save ourselves.
Really we know what we do. It's not about being successful, because you can have money and even illness or death. You can be healthy but not money. They also say that you can have everything in life. But there's commandments, one main and most important commandment "Love God above all things." Why is it so hard to show gratitude when everything went wrong unexplained and sudden unexplained something happened, and we call luck. We drown in the problem, we complained and we do not stop to complain. It is that perhaps when they crucified Jesus said, Do not kill me! Although it was difficult for him until the last minute decided to die for people who betrayed him. As living beings, we do not like the sacrifice, we loathe the suffering or pain, and many cause more pain to avoid it.
Being good is not easy, even when evil is giving us yet, but if we get carried away by anger, the little kindness that we would go into the abyss and with it a part of us, but everything. All those Christians know how important is this commandment "Thou shalt love God with all your heart, with all your soul." In the beginning the Spirit of God moved upon the waters, the earth was without form and void, and the Spirit of God separated the light from the darkness.
That is part of the first book of the Bible, Genesis chapter and verse 1. The Bible also tells us of the teachings of Jesus, whose message traveled the world; "I am the son, no one comes to the Father but by me" is only one God and no other gods before him, he is Father, Son and Holy Spirit. You just have to believe in it with all my heart. It sounds easy, but it is not. At least I try with all your heart and all your soul.
Perhaps if we try to be different, something changes in us, and really can be good, because if each of us were good, maybe none of this would happen.
