When God Gives a Warning, You Must Keep Your Ears Open

How often do you feel that God is with you? How often have you realized that He has blessed you with tremendous gifts? Do you value what you have got in life? Above all, how often do you recognize the warnings that he gives you? More often than we understand, we receive these omens well before in time so that we can rectify our errors, intentional or accidental which may be.

The thought of lying to someone may seem easy to someone for whom emotions do not hold much value in the first place. Contrariwise, people who place their family values above everything pay attention to what may hurt their loved ones. The latter category of people comprise the subject matter of this article. We may or may not have firm belief in God, but we cannot ignore the concept of Karma, which is something that plays a vital role in shaping our lives. 

The role of Karma

You might have noticed that almost everything goes well when you do not keep evil intentions for anyone. If you follow an optimistic approach towards others, every challenge that you face in various forms seems to come for a definite reason. Every snag arrives to teach a lesson; it’s just that we need to look at it from a different perspective.

The reason to mention challenges is that you, for instance, may want to do something that defies the norms of society and family. That particular thing may hurt someone you love from the bottom of your heart. Still, you think that you may just lie about it and do it because you want it, and it is not that destructive. This lie may be insignificant for you, but it may hurt someone’s soul forever. If you place some worth for the other person in your life, you will think several times before putting a forbidden thing in action. On the other hand, you may dare to do something challenging that you know will induce pain in someone’s heart. You may not get caught indulging in the delinquency once, twice, thrice, or maybe ten times. Then again, there will be an eleventh time when you will get caught, and this will be the time you will surely repent your misdoings.

That harmless something may cause substantial harm to your relationship, which may be repairable in the short-term, but it will scar your bond forever. In spite of this, there is something to learn from the setback as well. You might have been childish enough to not reveal the truth for some time, but if you view it from the positive side, you will realize that there was something in this occurrence that you can take away for the better. When you were caught, you might have had to face a smaller damage to your liaison, but there is a greater good waiting to happen in the long-term. If you overcome these times and manage to be together with your soulmate, you will find your bond even stronger than ever. Little occurrences like this may shatter you for a day or a year, but you will find yourself in love with life if you manage to deal with the situation without giving in. You might have to keep your self-respect aside and beg for forgiveness for much longer time than you can endure, but you will not feel repentant for pleading in front of someone you love from the core of your soul.

The most essential thing to take away from such episodes is the blessing of God, who was merciful enough to be with you, for the simple reason that you were not evil in your intentions. You sincerely regretted what you did, even if it was right from your standpoint, but now you know that the other person could not take it. You pledge to yourself and to God that you will not repeat your mistakes, at least not intentionally, if the divine God listens to you one last time. You value someone so much that you are ready to give up a few things that may be important to you, but they will inevitably hamper your relationship. Some people may give it the name of compromise or adjustment, but you know in your heart that you do not mind doing so for the sake of saving your mutual personal life. This is a little sacrifice you make because you want to, not because someone forced you to do so.     

The camaraderie of God

God is with you no matter what, provided that you do not keep malevolent intents. You cannot think about your own good if that requires an impulse to harm someone continuously, which is a sadist approach to life. God is a true friend, who does not expect anything from you; you just have to maintain an honest relationship with him. You may lie to anyone on earth, but your heart knows that you cannot hide a single particle of truth from Him. He is with you to warn you, guide you, scold you, and love you. Just be virtuous with Him!
