By D. Paul Reilly:
From my observations, there is a major problem in this great big world of ours, which is bringing a whole lot of grief into the lives of so many. Now at this point, I can just imagine many of my readers trying to figure out what I feel this major problem is. Some will perhaps say, that the use of drugs and alcohol is a major problem which is wrecking so many lives. Others will perhaps suggest, that a lack of spirituality in the lives of so many is a major problem. Still others will state, that the quest for riches, which results in far too many people becoming engaged in illegal activities is a major problem.
Well My Friend, it is indeed true that everything mentioned so far, is indeed a major problem in the world; however, it's not what I had in mind to write about when I started this article. So, let's cut to the chase, so to speak. The major problem which I'm discussing here today, and which is at the root of so many other problems, is The FACT, that far too many people from my observations, are not looking in the mirror. Now, many may say, what do you mean D. Paul by that statement, they are not looking in the mirror?
Well, what I mean is this. Multitudes of people whose lives are a mess, will not own up to the fact, that whatever is wrong in any aspect of their life, has ultimately been CAUSED by them and no one else. They keep on playing 'The Blame Game', but refuse to look directly in the mirror, and thus take full responsibility for what is happening in their life.
I'm going to issue a command here today for everyone whose perhaps hurting right now. Stop playing The Blame Game!! Stop blaming everyone and everything under the sun for all of your problems. The Universal Law of Cause & Effect that governs The Universe and everyone and everything in it, states that what we put out each and every day is what ultimately must come back to us....so we get back what we put out!
So My Friend, if your life stinks right now, you have CAUSED it to be like it is through your previous thoughts and subsequent actions. So, for God's sake, stop blaming others, just look in the mirror and come face to face with the real culprit, who made your present day life exactly what it is. Having completed that vitally important exercise, then you need to vow before God to immediately change, thus you together with Him, can co-create a brand new life. Until you fully accept responsibility for everything in your life, you simply cannot move on!
THINK ABOUT IT!
