We Can Be Greater!
In my life I have met many different types of people. There have been people who differ from me by their looks, speech, personality, culture, socioeconomic background and even religion. The last is the most facinating to me. Cultures, communities, countries, families, societies, households and even lives can be split based on differences in religion.
Religion is simply the system of belief that an individual applies to their life or living in order to drive them closer to their Higher Power or God.
Although there are so many differences between the different religions, there are certain things that actually connect them. First there is the individual desire to be greater. We as human beings have a two step process of maturity: accepting who you are and aspiring to be greater. Secondly there is the belief that there is a person or concept that is higher than humanity…something bigger than us. So, when I come across people who try to say that there is no God…they are fools. There is something or someone that you esteem as higher than you. Then also, we ALL desire to be greater…unless we desire to be dead. To deny the existence of God is to deny the potential of your own existence!
