I used to drive to work listening to AM political radio before the internet was prevelant. I would be beating on my dashboard yealling at the windshield with my "wisdom" of my political side
One day i said to myself "what the fuck am i doing?" I am sitting here ruining my vibe for the day and breeding anger about something that i have no control of.
If Jesus is the prince of peace and his principles lead to peace then i am on the wrong path.
He said to come out of the world. Now getting involved in politics or anything going on outside if our body is fruitless. It breeds hate, judgement and division.
When we choose to pursue the way of peace we have to let go of "being right". If i was right then i would have peace.
The bible speaks of worldly knowledge and it is an contrary to Gods wisdom. Worldly knowledge does not lead to peace. It leads to all strife, judgment, hate and a disturbance/unrest in our spirits.
We need to ask ourselves what is more important, being right (as we belive) or feeling good inside again. We all started out when we were young not involving ourselves in worldy affairs and we wer happier and saw a completely different world. Let a man become a fool that he my be wise.
This is a universal truth....you cannot have the indescribable peace that the scriptures talk about if you get yourself involved in worldly affairs or even other peoples affairs.
If inner peace is the basis of your decision making dynamic you are on the spiritual path and in redemption process.
Dont half ass this! This needs to be your reason for living, to learn to embrace everything you despise. this involves admitting you were wrong about just about everything that's humbling your soul. We feel like we do because of our beliefs and if we don't feel good our beliefs need to change.
