If I seek and do as He sought and did, I will be at peace.
If we seek and do as those who went before us sought and did, we will be as they were...better people.
A better person may well be as good as it gets...or as good as we're going to get.
According to me, to become a better person means we are moving away from self toward better...better than we are right this very minute. To become a better person, we're going to need to use the better brains of another person to do our thinking with.
It is fear alone that resists that idea. Fear tells us it's better to remain locked in self than to be exposed as wrong...or worse yet, as not knowing...and worse than that: not knowing we know not what! A tish plainer: Ask For Help. Ask for help, get good directions, follow those directions, become a better person.
Sometimes: Ask for help, misunderstand the directions, follow our misunderstood directions repeatedly and yet again, crash and burn, turn to a power greater than our self, pray, begin to understand the directions, follow those, become a better person.
All ways lead to God...eventually.
Thank you.
