Why is it that evil people seem to prosper and good men suffer?
Is it because being good is often thought to be the same as being weak or naive?
Of having a Lose-Win mentality?
Others go for Win-Lose
and for a while, they seem to be the winners.
Being good is not easy.
It needs Win-Win thinking.
And that requires courage and integrity.
Win-Win is love.
Any other mentality or approach to relationships
will ultimately end up in Lose-Lose.
We all lose in the end.
There is no other way we can come out of life alive
but through Win-Win thinking.
Jesus replied, “The first is this:
Hear, O Israel!
The Lord our God is Lord alone!
You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart,
with all your soul,
with all your mind,
and with all your strength.
The second is this:
You shall love your neighbor as yourself.
There is no other commandment greater than these.”
I never cease praying for strength in faith to overcome temptation..to achieve “win-win”. Bad things always seem so easy to do.
Indeed, it is so much easier and more pleasurable taking the easy way. But that’s the road to Hell.
Never cease praying and doing then.
