Happiness and Success 4
Why the world is foretold to be for the meek; why the meek will gain lasting happiness and success.
Knowing these, there is a valid reason for even the less privileged to choose to be happy. Their success will turn out to be by mere patience. Not all will be vindicated. Those who did their best to believe and wait patiently will be blessed. It is they who will weep with joy and certainly not the wicked.
I encourage everyone to learn the truth directly by reading the Scriptures. For those who studied this history of salvation, like biblical scholars, it is also known as the Gospel of Truth.
That same revered communication says, “The fear of the Lord is the begining of Wisdom.”
Happiness can be for a short while. If anyone wants to ensure that there will be a lasting, long-term joy, foresight must be brought to mind almost always. A very clear example is the happiness sought after by adventurous young people. Suppose they resort to drugs, we all know they get a temporary feeling of satisfaction, but only to discover a lot of troubles later. This example is something society knows about because many have seen the evil behind those vices and the consequences of falling into drug addiction. How about those instances hidden from the view of people ? Corruption, deception, unfairness, and more ? Can the sly or cunning get away with such actions ? People will never discover all the truth. But that which people cannot judge will eventually receive a corresponding judgement in a spiritual world.
An example of the condemnation can be read within the Ten Commandments. “I, the Lord, your God, am a jealous God, inflicting punishment for their fathers’ wickedness on the children of those who hate me, down to the third and fourth generation; but bestowing mercy down to the thousandth generation, on the children of those who love me and keep my commandments.” This is for the Christian doctrine.
Would you want your children to be cursed ?
In another belief, you must have heard of “Bad Karma” . And also consider that a similar understanding by a different faith is about human beings being turned into lower forms of life because of the behavior they showed as men or women. Those whose appetite resemble pig’s appetite can become pigs. Those who act like snakes can be turned into snakes.
People who do what is right and just are crowned with glory — the glory of genuine success and lasting happiness. We should be aiming for these.
