It’s All about Faith My world is tribulations, my world is sorrow, and my life is without meaning. This is the place I end up when I forget to have faith in my God. When I allow human passions more priority than spiritual passions, my love becomes tainted. I focus on the physical, I focus on the sexual, and I lust beyond reason. Love has nothing to do with possession of another. Love has nothing to do with unreasonable demands upon God. Love has nothing to do with feeling sorry for yourself. It is when I can see my ability to be useful that I find true love. When I commit myself to volunteer work, then I’m truly doing the kind of love that God respects. It is realizing my own self-worth that I give up the "illusion" of lost lovers. I can remember a time when I professed my love to another. They did love me in their own way, but they never loved me the way I love them. I could not see my unrealistic fantasy. I forgot that love has to be mutually agreeable on both sides. I harm many a good relationship by disguising lust as loving feelings. I would show how much I care, I would say how much I need, I would demand that they love me. It is for this reason that I have a backwash of failed relationships. Then" I focused on building a sound relationship with myself first. I understood that loves so much more than just romantic love. There was a love of humanity that had to be developed in order for me to do good works while I’m here. I thought if I found the perfect person, we could have a permanent relationship, and God would allow us into heaven because we had been committed to each other. I realize now that God places more value on honest relationships with honest motives. I had to realize that an honest person does not give up no matter how many times they fail. It is through this continual reliance on God that one opens his or her mind to the understanding of the ministries of the universe. We cannot find perfect love within the physical form of humanity, but we can find perfect love in the supreme imagination of spiritual mysticism. This is a place where the intellect is in full accordance with the Will of God. He will fill our hearts with the Holy Spirit, and He will bring comfort to a tired and weary soul. This is the kind of love I need to see me through the dastardly actions of evil men. I shall not surrender in my intimate desire to be kind, imaginative, and a productive citizen of the planet Earth. To commit myself to research the truth of ecology and the environment we live in. I shall give Special discipline of my mind to study the politics as if my life and future depended upon it. I shall unite with all people pushing a common language of tolerance and liberty. I will not limit myself to one religion to accomplish this. I will see the truth in every religion God has created and commit myself to the humanitarian societal needs of my land. My brother’s blood shall no longer be spelt to satisfy the desires of unjust leaders. Nowhere should my child have to die~ in any war. There is always an alternative route to peace. It is leaders and politicians who are either too greedy are too lazy to protect their citizens… Thomas A. SUTOR P.O. Box 2343 Lompoc CA 93438 Rockhawk.com |
