We have to admit we are on
the zenith of civilization where everything seems attainable. Each one of
us have wide knowledge in all fields, the excess wealth we all possess and
the amount of power each of us wield to survive. Amidst this whirl wind
of life something drastically is falling apart. And that is, moral
failure.
If we observe accountability has become rare among people. Be it in business or in relationship, we want to use each other for our convenience and personal gratification. The Bible emphasizes that all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. It is also true that we must be careful to guard our integrity and reputation as we represent Lord God the creator. As they say, it takes a lifetime to build a good reputation and just one poor decision to ruin it.

The crisis
among young people is entering into a relationship that has become a
status issue. We know many who have ruined their career and their purpose in
life. Marriage has been redefined. People are deciding to enter into
a live-in relationship because they assume it will take care of their immediate
emotional needs without commitment when it actually conjures confusion
and loss of peace. After one point they hardly care about being betrayed
or to betray. Some are in relationships as a result of infatuation but
name it love.
Sexual delinquencies are high among teens and young people because of
the amount of freedom and exposure they have. Just because one has the power to
decide what is right for him /her, it cannot change the moral framework God has
set in. We are all accountable to God and to each other. Our parents
and elders may look stupid when compared to our ability to use logic to do what
we want, but not God. Many people will have opinions and various
interpretations of the situation. However, they don’t have the responsibility
to God. Let me give some pleasure principles,
“The problem with the pleasure philosophy is that it provides the
benefits right away but extracts a cost over the long term.”
“Pleasure gives half-life and when you go to it the next time, you have
to go much deeper but is less satisfying”
If you find yourself held up in some kind of moral failure and unable to come out of it, you then need a God the Savior to liberate you in order to keep your from being hurt. Do not forget, we are all accountable and we share eternity with God. You may invite God to transform you. Moral framework and moral boundaries matters.
