Hope

We always ask ourselves, what is it all about? We wonder why this and why that. It's just so amazing how we are so worried about these little things, these small details of life... But what's really true is that none of all these things we value and care about so much matter.
But recently I found out what really matters. And what we should really be concerned about. See there are a lot of children out there suffering. They don't have any food to eat, no place to sleep, and nobody to care for them. It's not only children, there are people without any hope, because when they look at their circumstances they have no where and no one to turn to. There are people, children out there without a hope for tomorrow, even yet for today, for the next minute. They are hopeless and there's basically nothing they can do about it! There are people who wake up everyday knowing that that will be their last day, some even wish that their next breath would be the last. It's so sad to know, that while there are people around us or even us ourselves with all these resources and these privileges, most of which we don't even use or most of all need. While there are people who can't have even those that we call "the basics of lie".To mean that one can't survive without them. Those things that some of us take for granted. Things we never ever even think about. Those that we get naturally, or so we think, there are some people who would kill for even a minute of supply of those things that we take for granted.
And this is what its all about. Its about those that have hope providing hope for those who don't. Its about those that have more than what they need, even those that have what they need to share with those that don't have. Its about those who have a reason to smile to help those that lost their smile, mostly by giving something or a reason for them to smile.
And yes, that/this is a very valid reason to live for. We should live to compliment and help out each other. And this also, there are many times we think we are at our worst, when we think there could never be anyone more miserable than we are. However, we should know that ohhhhh there is always someone if not even many who are worse than us, who are in worse situations. But thats not the good news, the good news is, no matter how bad you think things are for you, no matter how miserable you think you are, you are still capable and so able to help someone, at least one person!
When it comes to faith, it takes a whole different meaning. We are so preoccupied with the laws of the Bible, with all the signs and wonders. We are so caught up in these little things that we've completely lost sight of what faith in God is all about. We've lost the true meaning of worship. And worst of all, we've lost the true identity of God, Christ....
And what's even more sad is that instead of us searching for the true meaning and reason for faith, we just dig ourselves deeper into the hole of deception, misconception and darkness. In fact, for some its even in this search that we find ourselves more lost, and thus drifting further and further away from what truly matters.
We are so lost despite of the clarity of the life of Christ. As we read the Bible or hear the story of Jesus, its all about nothing else but redemption!
Its about giving, even to those you think don't deserve to be given, its about loving, loving even those that we think don't deserve to be loved. And you know it's pretty explicit in the Bible that we are called to be like Jesus.
Now, one doesn't really have to believe in Jesus to see that he is a true model of how true humanity should be, how we are supposed to be. Even for those who don't believe in God, the simple arrangement of nature but for those with to help those without!
And we see this in the perfect character and personality of Jesus Christ!
And the Bible puts it the best way it can ever be put. That these two commandments I give to you; the greatest of them is that you shall love the Lord your God with all your strength, hear, and soul. And the second is that you shall love your neighbor as you love yourself.
So, this is a call to all humanity, to all of us, that we should start living for!
