Why do children grow to become source of sorrow rather than joy and blessing? Why do they grow to become a nuisance, a curse to the society like developing into armed robbers, bandits or insurgents, enemies of the state, of the society spilling blood of fellow human beings in their hundreds and thousands, bombing and destroying buildings, spreading agony, tears, pain and sorrow everywhere? As happening in many flash points on earth today in all continents and virtually in all countries?
Why do children grow to become kidnappers, extorting hefty ransoms from the victims’ families at gun point and often killing the victims at last? Why do children grow to become murderers of fellow human beings? Why do they grow to become dupes, tricksters and other high profile crimes kingpins inflicting distress and sorrow on their victims, on the society?
Why do they grow into youths and adults who cause their parents and society sadness, trouble and suffering rather than joy and happiness? Why do they grow to cause deep anxiety and distress rather than peace of mind? And what is the way out?
It is hereby stressed that every lawful child from birth is meant to give joy to his parents if trained and educated properly in accordance with the Holy Will of the Almighty Father as expressed in His Laws, otherwise called the Divine or Natural Laws governing Creation.
By this, each lawful child is meant to grow into a responsible youth and eventually an adult who will automatically honour the Laws and thus the Holy Will in all his activities in thoughts, words and deeds. Such a person would surely be a source of joy and blessing to his parents, society, the earth and the entire Creation.
But what is the situation on earth today with the generality of mankind, as regards our recognition or knowledge of, and living in accordance with the Holy Will as expressed in the Natural Laws governing Creation?
Are children being trained and educated on the basis of These Laws Which express the Holy Will? Do men and women generally know the real purpose of an earth life? Do parents generally know the real purpose of families rather than the customary reasons of raising children, regular free and undisturbed gratification of the body’s natural sexual instinct under the false cover of assumed respectability, societal demand and the likes?
Again this condition is aggravated by the generally impure lifestyles of mankind, who through our dark volition, reckless and frivolous living, have built many ethereal bridges into darker regions to attract dark souls living there, who were meant to be developing in their dark regions and who, in the ever loving Wisdom and Plan of the Almighty Father, were not meant to come to the earth now. These dark souls with appetites and longings that are strange to average normal human beings, and who are naturally aberrant, exhibiting strange and wild behaviours, constitute the dominant population of human beings on earth today. They constitute the more than half of mankind who are not supposed to be here on earth now. Wherever they are, they would be ring leaders among those human beings who are troubling the world today; as harbingers of sorrow rather than joy. They constitute the trouble that we attracted to the earth ourselves through our generally impure volition, through our many wrong lifestyles, in accordance with the Law.
The problem lies mainly in mankind generally distancing ourselves from the Holy Will of the Almighty Father expressed in the Natural Laws! It lies in parents distancing ourselves from the sacred responsibilities laid upon us, which we have voluntarily taken upon ourselves with the granting of our petitions by entrusting the children to us.
Besides, a well structured plan for a most important part of children’s education and training from age six or thereabout to the time when their spiritual education begins, in accordance with the Holy Will, is equally given. It is the most important duty of the parents, particularly the mothers, towards every child entrusted to their care, to key every child into this most important part of his or her education and training, strictly monitor, supervise and assist him or her progress! And guide the child dutifully to help him or her become a better human being, who will eventually grow to become really a source of joy and blessing to the mother, parents, the family, society, nation, entire earth and Creation.
However, definitely a glorious time is coming when mankind and the earth will be free of the chaos and confusion raging virtually everywhere on earth today. It is the promised time when all mankind on earth must live strictly in accordance with the Holy Will of the Almighty Father.This assurance flows from the Words of Jesus Christ Himself, Who declared in The Lord’s Prayer that the Kingdom of His Father shall come, and that the Will of His Father shall be done on earth as being done in Heaven!
We should set to work immediately to honestly seek, grasp and adhere to the true knowledge of the Laws expressing the Holy Will. Only this will enable us join other human beings, who already, are working vigorously as helpers, to prepare mankind and the earth for this promised glorious time on earth. And thereby help in building the earth into a realm flourishing in harmony, peace and bliss.
