Apek does not equal Wesley!
Hey... Wesley is in d hse! haha... What topic should I bring up today?
* I shall go look for a book to talk about! Why not the bible? haha... Nah... I shall talk about a commandment.
Love Thy Neighbour as God has loved us
God's love for life is an unconditional love. However, are we suppose to love unconditionally? We humans are not perfect. Even this excuse is not perfect as it is not a good excuse in life yet many people use it. We humans nevertheless are quite imperfect. However, we should not keep creating excuses but try to find solutions to it. We can't love conditionally right? How about trying our very best to love one another. I noe its not that easy to do so but God helps those who help themselves. We sometimes get very petty towards one another. Its Human Nature for heaven's sake. However, we do not have to be too petty about the things we do such as loosing a pen when a friend took it for a while and then hell breaking loose cos of that. We all have to have an aim in life. And for today, our aim is to love one another and be less petty.
Apart from that, love is something everyone has or has gone through despite it being love for a pet, friend or family member. We all love or have loved one thing or another. In the 1st place, i shouldnt be putting an '-ed' to my love as we love at least a someone all the time. Love for one another is very great. This is especially so for siblings as we grow up together and living life without love may lead us to having a bad future ahead of us. We need love from the time we come out of our mother's womb till the time we die no matter whether the love given is from the same person or not.
At birth, our parents support us with the love we need. It may seem as if this love is weakened when we grow older but there is still love. Many teens across the world regard their parents as useless people as they have lacked in the love given by their parents or have been given too much love that they do not feel this love anymore. However, deep down inside our parents hearts, their is still alot of love there. We may fall under the problem of not honouring your father and your mother which in turn leads to another commandment being disobeyed. Wait! do not think that its because you are not perfect if you were thinking so... hee hee.. See the consequences of not following this very important commandment. As a result of dishonouring ur parents, many teens will start mixing around with bad company resulting in peer pressure such as theft. Thou shall not steal is yet another commandment which is indirectly caused due to the main one being destroyed. As time passes by, for extreme cases, some may even fall into religious problems such as join these underground satanic groups or ok... lets not be too extreme but some may even start playing with satanic objects like the uija board.i dunno whether i spelt it correctly. haha... Another resultant commandment being disobeyed, There shall only be one god and no other. Or else if these people are not that extreme, they may even fall under the sin of commiting adultery due to the fact that moral values were not taught at a young age by their parents. I do noe of some youths who stand at the altar every day who are a victim of this! Like the saying goes, do not judge a book by its cover. Seriously! this is quite a common problem especially so for countries like America where they are not taught the right values and as a result, they scold their parents or seniors foul languages and show them foul signs. Therefore, we should all try anew from now, not tomorrow as when tomorrow comes, you will say tomorrow again. I shant continue anymore as it is never ending... But always remember, 'Love the Lord your God with all you heart, and with all your mind' If you can't love him, you can't love anyone else. This is the greatest commandment according to Matthew 22:34-40!
