Have you ever wondered why your
parents were disciplining you on all your wrongdoings and you were watched and
monitored constantly? You were not allowed to smoke, booze, use
substance, gamble, have fun with opposite sex, watch pornography, flirt, cheat
and be dishonest. All this was considered as crime. Either our parents were
dumb and stupid to the core restricting us from having fun or they valued the
right things and thought such ill habits will have a detrimental effect on us.
Now consider this, while one transitions
from childhood to adulthood and once independence and power of money is gained,
all the above that was referred and viewed as wrong by the parents are now at
their choice to pick any habits and usually such people end up justifying or
living a double life.
This cycle keeps moving and people never
take it seriously. While one has picked up wrong habits and live at their terms
with no moral framework, they ensure their spouses or children doesn’t exhibit
the same. It doesn’t work that way, Psychologist say most of the behaviors are learned behavior and people around them are influenced by the same. You don’t want your children
or loved ones to be learning something that can have a serious effect on them or
in their family, do you?
You can get over this predicament only with
the help of God and not religion. Have you ever wondered that the
problem with religion and morality is that it never gives you the power you are
supposed to do? Think about it. Some think religion and devotion to God is a
set of rules, rituals, practices and training, but it is not. It is about
relationship with God. The challenges with all of these kinds of training
is that it attempts, Reformation before Transformation.
In Bible it says "If
I do what I do not want, I am no longer the one that does it, but it is the sin
that lives in me”. There is good news, you can be delivered from such ill
behaviors, moral failures or addictions only through the help of God, a God
with no contradiction and who displayed perfect model life, only He can transform you
to be a better person. You can only receive help from God who has a power to
deliver you and me from the wretchedness of sin and all negative habits. Speak to Him through Prayer to transform you
to be a better person.
