Why do We Fight???

Why do we fight? Why do we have wars? Why do we want what other people have? Why can't we just be happy with what we have? You should think about this. For centuries we have fought...in the name of religion, revenge, and it is all really just because we want what someone else has. You may not believe it but it is definitely true. Today we fight primarily because we want more. More of what you say? More money, more power, anything that will place me (you) in a better position in the world than we were before. Though people won't tell you that's why we fight, it is the truth.

In the past and to this day, we have participated in and fought wars because we so falsely believe money is power and everyone wants more power. We can say that we are defending our land or someone took something away from us and we have to fight to get it back but if everyone was happy with what they had there would be no need to get back what was taken from you or go take what doesn't belong to you. The world that we live in is GREEDY, very GREEDY, and our father did not intend for us to live like this. The truth is no one has power like God has power, so we fight in vain. We fight for worldly goods and the right to say I defeated you and now I own what is rightfully yours. Isn't this stealing? Now I can take your stuff, sell it, and make a profit for me and make me more powerful to the world. So, who wins when we fight? The entity that succeeds at stealing from the other person? The entity that has just killed or or devastated their brothers and sisters? The entity that now has more worldly power??? Who really wins?

If you have been reading, you can easily see that no one wins. We all lose! We destroy our beautiful land, we destroy our brothers and sisters, and we brake several of God's commandments in the process so how could anyone win? As hard as this is for a lot of people, we must learn to walk away...simply put, just walk away. Also, we must stop idolizing and glorifying people, as this is a sin and provokes more hatred and lusts for power. Most importantly, we must remember to share, give, and live Holy as Jesus did on this earth. Never having a sour heart toward his brothers and sisters but forgiving them and praying for deliverance he did because he loved them. Let's love our enemy and forgive and pray for those that forsake us. We all know fighting is bad but some say there is a need (or a time and a place when you need to fight). There is never a need to fight. God is already fighting our battles for us and he never loses. So, when we get in the way for any reason that we may believe is justified we have just defeated ourselves. So, don't fight, simply walk away and pray.
