Who Are You to Criticize!

People, they reprehend you! Some of them perceive their own identity as to who you are, while some simply ask the question, who are you? I am a spirit, brought into existence by the Creator. He blesses me with the strongest desire to love, to fear and to seek Him. He is a blessing, I cannot subsist without Him. I am a spirit that hungers to know the Lord God, who is so wise, gentle, and indulgent to my soul. He is my Therapist; His counsels are always accurate. He will never beguile my spirit. I adore Him. I am a spirit that desires uprightness, to live a life that is pleasant and acceptable by the Lord I firmly trust and believe in.

The Lord, whose presence is unknown to the eyes of men, but it can be felt, and His marvelous works are evident everywhere. The invisible God that sees my afflictions, and delivers my spirit from the antagonism that heaves me down. God is real. There is no doubt or question in my mind, regarding where He came from or who He is? That is an affront, a result of the unethical principles and stupidity of humankind. Personally, for me to question God's existence that exemplifies uncertainty of my own existence. I am here...there is no disbelief or concern as to how I got here. I know this life was formulated by the Lord: "all things were made by God and without Him nothing was made."

The thought process and operation of humans saddens my spirit. It pains my heart when we derogate and fight against each other without a firm cause. We have a mentality that is so judgmental. Who are we to condemn our own flesh and blood? But not until you know who I am, what is my worth, where am I going, and who is guiding me...then you are free to pass judgment on me! Candidly, society doesn't have the right or the liberty to pass judgment. They are not God or Jesus Christ. "For as the Father has life in Himself, so He has given to the son to have life in himself and has given him the authority to execute judgment." It is not our responsiblity to determine the significance of someone else.

Things do get convoluted, but despite our complexities...we should love and care for each other; a nation without love is like a continued disaster. It has no respect or empathy for human lives. Love is not a crime and it doesn't cost a dime. It amazes me, so many of us live and breathe for injustice, narcissism and loathe. We strive for wickedness and unrighteousness. It is so sad; we can't continue living this lie. Love is a reality, put it in your vision and bring it to life. Amend your ways and seek the Lord before it is too late.
