If only the Innocency of man will be brought back. Just this one wish.
The universe was very perfect when it was first created so was man himself. But what went wrong? I can imagine how things turned the way they are today when everything was meant to bw perfect. The beginning is what I ask for. Before everything changed. Let's move on to see what I feel should ve brought back today.
When men were innocent things were not the way it is now. We have lost something very special. A very special virtue. Something that God gave to us free of charge. We did not do anything to get it at first, but today is the most expensive thing to get.
WHAT DO I WISH TO BE BROUGHT BACK?
INNOCENCEY OF HUMANITY.
Not too far from now, when I was still a little girl, people use to be very sincere. When I say very sincere I mean the sincerity that you can't question. People lived in peace with each other. There was no much problem then.
As kids we can go to any uncle or aunty's place to stay for as long as we want. There was nothing to be afraid of as at then. We eat food from any of our neighbors.
We can just sit in someone's house and sleep off. Our parents will be called in the night to come and take us home and there was nothing wrong with that.
We can also travel to anywhere and we were not afraid of anything bad happening on the highway.
WHAT OF TODAY?
The reverse is the case today. We are afraid of anyone and anything. We can even allow our children outside for too long let alone to eat in our neighbor's house. We don't also trust our parents and even our siblings. Traveling now has become like a forbidden fruit. We are also afraid of traveling because of either accident, rubbery or even kidnapping.
So many things have gone wrong and I believe it is all because we have lost our innocency. Someone said somewhere that in the realm of the spirit everyone is a suspect. I don't blame people who use this kind of phrase. Though I don't have problem with people around me so I am not suspecting anyone for any reason. I believe that once you are hidden in God, no harm will befall you. But the reason people use such phrase is because the world is wicked now. When we talk about the world we are talking about the people that dwell in the world. People don't have the fear of God anymore. We can just do anything to anyone without any fear just because we want to make money or gain popularity. We want to be known.
So, for me all I ask for is that innocency of humanity. That sincerity that we had from the beginning. That heart that men had and the consider God first before doing anything. If only we can get that back then everything will be in good shape. But whereby we can't get that we will continue to suffer like this.
This post was inspired by the hive learners community contest for week 104, edition 3.
Aristotle quoted "It is in the nature of man kind to be wicked". Though based on spiritual doctrines it is said that mankind used to be untainted and far away from crimes but slowly descend into it as a result of the intervention of the serpent.
But it doesn't disagree with the fact that we have always been embodied with the capabilities to commit crimes against one another. The only thing I believe is capable of keeping us in check is discipline.
Though in the old days we had less crimes because we still believed in humanity and culture, we still had moral discipline. A trait that has been nearly plunged out of the world.
What God desires is very simple, to go back to the garden, when Adam was walking with Him in the cool of the day, learning from him like a child learns from a Father, not straying from the path but seeking what is good in His Father's eyes, rather then everyone doing what is good in their own eyes. This is how I define the innocence of humanity. This is how Yeshua walked and followers of Yeshua are expected to walk.
But the wisdom of the world is so tempting, desirous in our eyes, good to eat to make us wise - gain the whole world, but loose our soul, taking on the heavy yoke of the world (that claims to love us) being promised a vain reward.
May it never be, our true reward is won by wearing the light yoke of righteousness, Godly wisdom, confirming our souls by the fear of the LORD, forsaking the world, continuing in the faith, that though through much tribulation we enter into the Reign of God. The fruit of righteousness is a tree of life!
You have said it all. We need to go back to the drawing board. That is where we started from.
Thanks for hopping in
Humanity is in an unconscious race against time, trying to catch up with the bounties of life and perhaps making us turn against one another. Unfortunately, man is insatiable and the innocence may be far fetched.
Thank you for your good script
God bless you 🙏 for coming around. Happy weekend
Amen and you too ma
This is so true, no more sincerity in the world again, we just have few to no good people again, I pray God will help each and everyone of us.
AMEN 🙏. Your prayers are appreciated.
Thanks 👍
Your reflection on the lost innocence of humanity is poignant. You vividly describe a time when sincerity and trust were abundant, contrasting it with today's world, marred by fear and suspicion. Your plea for the restoration of humanity's innocence and a return to values is a compelling and heartfelt message. Thank you for sharing your thoughts in the hive learners community contest.
Thanks darling. I hope that God answers my prayers 🙏.
Do have a great weekend ahead
We can’t even trust our best friends. Everyone is scared because man’s heart is full of wickedness. I’m not being pessimistic but it is likely for this to get worse
We’re in a crazy world
I agree with that.
Thanks 👍
