Sermon 22: A Balanced View

As you travel your path to Heaven, you will learn how to be peaceful and content under any circumstance, how to have a balanced view of things. This is a necessary step in achieving the ability to choose the perfect happiness of Paradise. Remember, God looked at All that He had created and declared it Good. We must develop the mindset that will let us see the good in everything, too.

The easiest way to begin to achieve satisfaction with all the world has to offer is to strive for complete Faith in God. Trusting in Him and His purpose of readying us for Heaven will make the most difficult of situations relatively easy to bear, you will know that God is in charge. Then, you will readily see that good lessons will undoubtedly spring from bad events, and you will be able to enjoy good events without spoiling them with the demand that they be perfect events. Your approach to all moments in life will become more evenly tempered.

Knowing that everyone else has the same God-given purpose that you do will help you become more tolerant of other peoples actions. You will be able to give others the benefit of the doubt, and you will trust that it is not your job to judge them. It is your job to learn to interact with people in a way that prepares you for a future with an infinite number of souls about. You will be able to understand that we are all good and bad, and that this balanced view of things will lead to satisfaction with all beings, including yourself.

Practice balance and you will move away from disappointing decisions that are based on an all or nothing point of view. You will see two sides to every story. You will grow to attain the true Knowledge of Good and Evil. It is that there is no happiness in absolutes.
