Changing People!?


It is really scary when it comes to change for me. Recently I was asked the question "If I could change anything, what would it be?" The answer came to me quickly but as I listened to my other classmates answer the question, many other answers came to me as well. Of course they answered with "No crimes, murder, abortions," which I all agree with, but as I listened to them I tried to find one thing. What is the route of all these things? Now thinking about it, I have always heard at my school that the Devil is the route of all evil. That may be true but just how does the Devil bring its' evil into this world? Well, through people. So if it is through people, people are really the route of evil. So if you could change people, wouldn't that be great. When I say "change people" I am not talking about appearances, but thoughts and actions. I wish I really did have this power, but I still do not fully understand what it means to "change people."

There are some people that you love, and would never change and others you wish you could drastically change. I really want the thought process of people to change, and how they interpret things. I want things like this to change because people do not try and look at different perspectives of a situation they just look at it their way. People do not try to understand others, if they tried to look at it differently then maybe such things as war and conflict wouldn't exist. This is why I said I would want to change people because we are the route conflict of crimes, murder, abortions, war, and tragic history. If I could just change people, hopefully none of these things would exist.

People just are so mixed up, different and random. God has never made an identical. So it is really hard for us all to live in peace on Earth. If I could change their thoughts, words, actions, mind-set, and personality, I would do this in order for there to be peace, which (hopefully) all humans truly desire. Maybe if I could do this there wouldn’t be killings, and awful things happen on our planet. If only…if only. I was told when doing this to dream, and yes…yes I am dreaming terribly big. Sadly there will never come a day when everything will peaceful, that only happened when there was no sin, with Adam and Eve. Even if it is people who are tempted by the Devil to do wrongdoings, God has given us free will. Eve was the one who choose to take the forbidden fruit. And we are the people who choose to do things maybe we’re not proud of but we CHOOSE them. Just as I said God gave humans free will because He didn’t want to force a relationship between Him and humans on us. It is all because God loves us so deeply that He will love forever and will forgive you if you reject him, and He will welcome you with open arms no matter how many wrongdoings you have committed, no matter how many times you have sinned, all he asks is that you believe that “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life” John 3:16.
