everyday is a journey.
So others shall
Take patience, labor, to their heart and hand,
From thy hand, and thy heart, and thy brave cheer,
And God's grace fructify through thee to all.
The least flower with a brimming cup may stand,
And share its dewdrop with another near.
E. B. BROWNING.
Everyday our moral meter is tested. I find that only a few people exist that actually use it. We can just about justify every action we make when we set our minds to something. It doesn't matter if it's morally correct or not. To some people, the ends justify the means.
There is a line that we just don't want to cross. Once we do. basically we sold our soul to the devil. There is no turning back from the consequences that will unfold from this drastic and selfish decision. They are always the selfish decisions that direct us toward the passing of the moral meter line. We try to convince ourselves and others that it was anything, but personal gain. We try to silence our conscience with excusable reasoning.
Well folks, wrong is just plain wrong. Just like Pastor Jeff Shreve From Heart To Heart Ministries says: Right is right even when nobody's doing it. Wrong is wrong even if everybody is doing it.
Later as we are faced with the realization that we have crossed a line morally, the consequence has to be paid in full, even with repentance. The prisons are filled with people that are sorry, but they still have to live out their sentence.
Have a blessed day everyone.
