Based
on the creation story recorded in History, carefully analyzed and scrutinized
by science, anthropology, Metaphysics, quantum physics and other field of study,
we are believed to be created in the likeness of God with a divine significant character like emotions,
love, intellect and free will. Unlike animal kingdom that operates based
on instinct we operate by emotions, instinct and intellect. When human
being yields to instinct alone, we then witness heinous crime like brutal
rapes, murder, embezzlement, etc.
The
power to choose is what sets us apart from all other creations, and that is a
lot of power we have been given when we really think about it. I
hear this general saying from people which says. “Whatever will be, will be.”. Have you ever heard this statement too?
If we look deeper into that statement, it is actually scary to think that
whatever happens in life was meant to be, but unfortunately that is the formula
of the world we live in. But I beg to differ that if this belief system is
true, then what is the reason for prayer, medication, fasting, or even going to
any religious places? If our lives were meant to be lived with this predestined
path of unfortunate and tragic events with a few happy moments in between, then
why would we even need to believe there is supernatural power who we call God.
Think about it.
Fate is
defined as something that unavoidably befalls a person or that which is
inevitably predetermined: destiny. With this definition it gives the idea that
if someone has a wonderful end to their destiny, it will happen to them no matter
what and nothing they do can change it. This sounds great but on the flip side,
if someone has a bad end to their destiny there is also nothing, they can do to
change it. This belief system sounds very flawed and very unfair.
We
live by faith in God which translates to trust one another and live by hope,
good works and accepting the salvation from God in order to enjoy the abundant
life from Him and to enjoy the fellowship of our families, friends and with all
others for perfect harmony and satisfaction. Nothing is a matter of mere
chance.
