#WE DON’T LEARN FROM GOOD THINGS ONLY BUT ALSO FROM BAD THINGS

    Since good things inspire you to do the same and more, at the same time bad things also cause fear in you and through your conscience you will truly abstain from it. We couldn't worry about death if we didn't see human beings and other God’s creatures die; the same way we couldn't love to be righteous if we didn't see, hear or read about the rewards of those who were and are now righteous in the Lord. Having said so, don’t hate those who showed bad examples or did bad things or don’t hate the failures or losers, because in one way or another their cases are for you to know and study right or wrong things, and hence have that understanding on how to turn away from those bad things they did into good and good into best things, you see other things in life once we learn it in hard ways it really became a big lesson; it became better, forms discipline in us and even uplift our faith in Jesus and finally became the standard of living, this is to say that it renews the fear of the Lord our God in us. Therefore in all ways thank God for them for they became our case studies and specimen for us to live in right way which pleases God.
   Sometimes I think how my standard of living could have be or was supposed to be, if there were no examples of people to learn from them and follow if its good what they were doing and abandon if its bad, be it either by reading, seeing or hearing; mind you what we are currently doing is not new at all i.e. there are people caused it to happen by just allowing themselves to be used by it whether written, those we see or those we hear from different documentaries. This is why also Holy Bible was written by mere human beings like you and me with the inspiration of Holy Spirit, so don’t deceive yourself that you made a new thing, that's just chasing after winds as Bible says its really that; there is nothing new under the sun, whatever you are doing there are the people whether good doers or evil doers made a big lesson in you.
   This is also the reason why the Bible says love your enemies with all your heart; those who persecutes you and not only friends, for they are used to sharpen you into righteous way of living. Love all, like the way David loved King Saul or the way Jesus loved Judah Iscariot and the way Jesus loves the church, the way Elisha loved Elijah also, the way genuine Christians love Jesus Christ so as to learn from them and finally be like gold which passed through furnace fire. Be blessed in Jesus Christ name.
