POWER
Everybody hate to be dominated, we all want to be in charge of our lives and do whatever we want. Even God who created us does not exert an overwhelming guiding influence on our lives. He has given us our will to make choices and decisions we deem neccesary.

Imagine how it feels if when you are owing someone huge amount of money, it's like the person owns your life. You are no so free until you have settled the debt.
You will have sleepless night and become worried the moment he start asking for payment. If you are able to make payment you are freed and this gives you a relief from all troubles and worries.
Everyone of us wants to be indeed free from all pressure. You want to have all your bills paid and all the things you need bought, want own your own house, have your own business and probably stop working for someone.
You are always at a good position to put on a good smile the moment your needs are met. This is how God wants us to live, a life where you manage and control your environment and your affairs.
There is now a struggle in this world for one thing and that is power. We all want to be powerful in some way in order to have influence on people and situations. For this reason we all wants to go for things which can give us this power....thats is money.

One thing people are craving for is money, for it has the ability to give all the wealth you desire. People are not necessarily after money but after power and that is why they will do anything for it. In our world today money can give you power and to have all your desires met.

Power is indeed sweet and it's really good to have it but don't just do anything to gain power. The excessive craving for money have turned people into something they are not, we have ingored the fear of God, integrity and even if it means to kill for money some people will hesitate to do so.

But it doesn't profit you of anything if you gain the whole world and then loses your soul. God has already giving you a great inherent power called the will, use it wisely and accordingly. Let what God wills for you precede what you will and then what He has desinged for you will definitely prevail in your life.
very good post, this is very useful for everyone, and can be a motivation for all of us. This life is sometimes not as we want, there are times when we are hard, and there when we are happy. But this life we specify, where the direction is the purpose of our lives. Most importantly we must be close to God, always pray to God. I'm sure, whatever we do, will definitely get the results we want. Thanks for sharing... :)
You made mention of prayer and the need to fet close to God and they are what we need to do today to survive the pressure in our world today, thank you for reading @reynakarina
Hello @collinz. In truth, the power and ambition to money have sequestered the true essence of the human being, love. Therefore, today more than ever we must be firm in the commandments of God our Lord.
Blessings in all your projects @collinz
Exactly, we must be firm in practising the things of God not to be carried away by the pleasures of this world, nice comment and thanks for stopping by @ulisesfl17
