The Role Of God Today

The biggest challenge men has faced & will ever face is not global warming but fitting God into the big picture & into our everyday lives. We seek to understand & when something in not within our realm of understanding we cast doubt & ridicule it as our defense for our ignorance.

We are developing at an alarming rate & because we think science & God do not agree we leave that which has anything to do with God & turn to science because scientist are there to explain. We cannot to read the biblical texts for more understanding because we have already made up our minds that we are free spirits therefore accepting God is to be ruled. We fail to see the relevance of God in today's society because we have the sole purpose to be our own people.

I am yet to meet people who don't swear by or on Gods name; I also await to see a day when God is not blamed for all the wrong that is in the world. We have substituted God with material items & we have a sense of fulfillment from our belongs; God has not part in our lives anymore. The very reasons we are running away from God is the very reason we need him. God has always given men the freedom of choice & we have mistaken that for our selfish need to rule ourselves & live carefree lives.

God is the pivot of all lives irrespective of what we think, in a very enlightened space in our minds we know & acknowledge him yet we fight him. We have statements like "cleanliness is next to Godliness" yet we think that God has no part in our lives nowadays.

Have we asked why we fight God so much? Muslims have no problem with their God, they will die for him, and Buddhists have an unquestionable respect & a profound respect for their God yet every other person who either believes in God or not struggles with the acceptance of what God actually does or is in our day. When God is acknowledged, societies can live together in peace & it also brings people together of all nations & beliefs. God was, is & will always be a great bring together of people of different backgrounds, colors & interests.

On the US bills reads "In God we trust", the British national anthem has a line that says "God save the Queen" South African Anthem has "Nkosi sikelela Africa" which interpreted id God Bless Africa. We have always known that God is there yet now we think we are too sophisticated for God. God still is our center piece, principals, values; morals are all centered on God. The fear & respect of God is a ground of societies & families and irrespective of what we want to believe, God will remain God, it's only in our interest that we acknowledge him for the sake of our morals.
