Humans are so easily swayed by the opinions of others. Definitely, most part of it boils down to charisma, persuasion and reasoning. But then, what do we follow. In a world where everyone has individual thoughts and beliefs, we do not know sometimes what the right thing to do is. Just like Eve offered the apple to Adam. Adam had a choice to accept it, and he did, changing the fate of the rest of the human population that followed. So now then, everyday people offer us choices. What do we do? What do we base our actions on? There will be no two people with the same measure of a similar value. Even if I, for instance value peace, others too value peace, but may prioritize hope over peace. We have very different expectations of ourselves and of others. But the only actions we can directly determine are our own. And we determine them according to God's word. Because His Word is constant and everlasting. It is never-changing, never compromising, like Him. And when we base our judgements and values on His Word, we will never fail to succeed in everything we do. Even if we have failed in the eyes of the world, we have succeeded in the Lord. - Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous.. Do not let the book of the law depart from you, do not turn from it to the left or the right. Be careful to do everything written in it, so that you may be successful where ever you go, and in whatever you do.
