Humanity - When the Chips are Counted, When the Cards are on the Table, We Are Just Children

The Blessed Creator has allowed us to learn as a part of life. Education and learning occur as the air we breathe in our lives. We all learn unique lessons in varied times and methods.

We always reveal our true selves in times of heartache, devastation, or the critical moment when our lives totally change. What we become in that singular, critical moment is totally our choice. Will we become a better servant to God and humanity, or will we embrace the bitterness and evil from lesser thinking?

We are created in the image of God and there is an immortal, benevolent desire to rise above the evil and mundane. It is just as easy to become the good servant to God and humanity as it is to become evil.

What if we choose the lesser way and embrace bitterness? We become the lesser thinker who abuses human life and kill for their own arrogance. In the end, they are alone with a broken crutch ready for the fire and no other support. The merciful God will bring another life lesson as another chance to learn and rise up to holy thinking and service that honors God. Simply put, when we make foolish mistakes, God always allows us to try again toward redemption until Blessed Messiah comes. This is the Benevolent and Merciful Creator who never wants His creation to perish but serve Him.

When we fail, God allows us a way to rise above and conquer the trial. All we have to do is pray.

When our friends fail, all we have to do is encourage them and stand by them as they try to improve; we love them in a way we would need if we fail.

So when the chips are counted and cards called on the table, we are all just children trying to learn.
