Greed
One of the worst things in the world is greed.
It's also one of those things that we keep far from our heart.
We live in a 'this and that' world, we can be generous or we can be greedy. First off, being greedy is very unattractive. Greed is something that you wouldn't want to be caught up in upon death, because for all eternity your soul will remember all the terrible greedy things you did and you can no longer go back to change them... can't ever make it right.
Living after dying is a real thing. Its the part of you that dreams while your body is sleeping and it's a very important thing to know. There is the outside and there is the inside and contrary to popular belief these things, your body and your soul are very different. One dies and the other never dies.
So many people in the world are always thinking of their own body, their own self. But GOD tells us there is so much more than that. However some people get stuck in the self and they become selfish.
The old school rule is this... GOD is first, my friends and family are second and I am third. But the devil wants you to serve yourself first. Don't do that! Its a trap of the devil and it will ruin your life, because those who never mattered to you won't be there for you when you need them. Someone could of helped you out of a jam, had you cared about each other. But selfish people alienate other people for focusing on themselves, like I said, this is very unattractive. When you realize that we are here to help each other and you try your best to be a helpful and caring person, wow... its life changing!
I think being greedy is a bad thing because it shows no care for others. People all the time use and abuse and disrespect others for self gain. And believe me, it's not a pretty sight.
The word of GOD is filled with great advice on what to do and what not to do, in order to have a practically perfect life! When you practice perfection its not to show off to others that you are perfect... its the ability to do the right things in life that have been tried and true since the beginning of time. And not be swayed by temptation of greed.
Oh sure, you can be greedy if you choose... but you can also find a better way that is also loving and caring and helpful to others too! And if you act on greed alone and use and abuse others, that shit is going to come back and smack you in the face so hard... so that you can see the destruction of your ways.
We learn these things one way or the other... We're better off learning these things from the word of GOD, that's the easy way... but we can also learn them from someone with experience, that's a little harder... or we can learn them the hardest way, through making bad choices and suffering the consequences of those bad choices.
This is why GOD came for the edification of humans.
Its that old battle between good and evil. It's real, its out there and we must have the knowledge of old to fight this battle of old. We don't want greed to lead us in life because its a known road to hell.
I've personally seen greed destroy people and sometimes their families.
So keep right... do things that you know are on the side of good.
Be ye on the side of good, that is the only way to have the best life possible for not only yourself, but also for others. Consider others, as they consider you. Be kind and helpful and teach your children the same as the word of GOD says, 'Love one another, do good to one another, help each other out!'
We have learned this centuries ago! Lot's of people are already doing it!
Do you think of us as so stupid that we can't learn from our mistakes!?!
Greed is not good... would you like your family to suffer for the greed of another?
God teaches us to be humble.
We should never put ourself above GOD or other people!
Life is a sacred gift, do it the right way and you will find many blessings.
Oh sure, there may be hard days, but walk with GOD and HE will walk with you and when you can't seem to go on, GOD carries U through.
We as GODS PEOPLE emulate Jesus!
In a world where everyone is acting like Jesus Christ, (the final sacrifice for sin... for our sin'... we can learn a better way, the right way. We can learn to do better! We can be the generation that get's it right!
In reality, we sacrifice our sin and we just don't do it anymore.
We follow the way that is good for everyone!
No more war... no more hate... no more greed!
Thanks for reading! I love and appreciate you all!
GOD Bless US, Everyone! IJCNA
