It
is really easy to get caught in the life of chasing the wind. You spend a whole
day chasing vain things…you think you are busy but before you know it; you are
totally drained and completely lost in the endless cycle of the rat race.
I
heard it in Church and it is beginning to make sense to me…. The devil burdens
humans with 3 things:
-
The Lust of the Eyes
-
The Lust of the Flesh
- The
Pride of Life.
These
3 things are the basis of the conflicts and emptiness we experience in the
world today. Most people become pre-occupied with achieving a life for only
themselves. It is always about them. You really have to be careful not to
become preoccupied with achieving for yourself only…It is not going to always
be about you. Suddenly, you loose yourself in this pursuit of material, your
life is overtaken with anxiousness…. You become caught in the hurrying that the
world is leaving you behind, you think you are so slow, you are making no progress….you
never count your blessing because you don’t see the need to.
You
must discover the essential things in life, what is really important in the
very end. If you can only discover that, your life will automatically adjust.
People are in so much hurry and it leaves me wondering, where we are all
hurrying to?
To
achieve feats in life is good but in all that never loose sight of what really
matters. Don’t let the things around you and other people’s definition of what
life really means fool you…it is important that you know what you want.
Life
is not always about how much material you have…it has its prestige but there is
so much more to life. To continually live this principle that you are not so
much for the material is a hard feat to achieve; it is a continuous fight. This
is the one thing that drives the world…inside it, you have the 3 things that
the devil contro9l the world; the lust of the eyes, the lust of the flesh,
the pride of life. It is an order that propels people, they do not know
when to stop the chase, and they are forever chasing materials. People who have
won their battle with material madness will tell you how much relieve they are
experiencing. They have gotten over themselves, they live offence-free life and
there is so much space in their lives to reach out to others. They are at peace
with themselves, happy in their own skin as they live everyday life getting
better.
After
all has been said and done…..when the die is cast….what will really matter? Ask
yourself this one question….am certain, it will help you make better choices!
