In times as today when religion and God are being held responsible for a lot of problems around us, I ponder and think whether God or the concept or the belief in God is really to be blamed? Is it the concept or our understanding or the lack of it of this concept.
Well here is my understanding of God.
GOD.........
The force everyone holds supreme in this universe. the assistance everyone seeks, the belief everyone wants during times of trial,the only source of fear for a sinner.
What's God ?
What does God want ?
Or rather what does God think of us ??
God for me is the reason to live. He is the source and destination of all desires and ambitions. He is ultimate and surely powerful enough to grant you what you want.
however what does he want in return ?
or does he want anything in return ??
God is important for two reasons to this world ..to this universe, to humanity to You and to me.
God is the ultimate Fear..
If and when I commit a sin a crime or anything wrong .. before committing it I should have the fear that someone s watching me and would hold me responsible and accountable for this, ultimately.
that i need to answer someone at the end of the day.
just like a child fears his parents before doing any misdeed , we are all children of God and we fear him . and it's only beacuase of him that the world is still a livable place. had the fear of the ultimate power not been there, humanity would have vanished long ago.It's the fear of the supreme that keeps the universe, the world, the community and a person himself together .
this is the precise reason why , when humans want to bind people together the first criteria they use is God himself .. on the basis of religion on the basis of God , on the basis of beliefs in different forms of Him humans form the groups which again build in a fear of that form of God into the individual.
the second reason why God is important to me is that ..during an anixious time, during a troubled situation, during a difficult hour , i should always believe that someone 's watching over me .. he should give me , motivation,belief and ultimately power enough to overcome that situation .
just the way you believe that your parents will always support whatever situation you are in .God supports all his children whichever situation they are in . for him all of us are equal and equally lovable.he helps us always and motivates you to be on your own
Ultimately god in fact provides you with the solution to all your problems, he fulfils all your desires. however one should have that belief that there is Him who will take care of everyone.
Its abt him being the ultuimate source of happiness and fulfilment that we respect him so much, however the most important part of God and his mysterious presence is the Belief the trust ..
however deep the trust is .. ur happiness is that much more ..
The sense of fulfilment , the snese of pride in just living life simply is what trust in God gives you ..
Just believe Him and fear HIM .
