Morality

By what set of rules do we determine our morality?  Truth, by the very human understanding, is relative. Influenced by the the thinking and actions of those whom we choose to associate, truth becomes relative to each situation as well as its audience. Once taboo, sex in television has become the accepted norm to increase popularity and ratings. What made this, among many other things, increasingly common to the point of acceptance?  Intrinsically we know there is a an innate good as well as an innate evil and still it remains for us to choose to align ourselves with good or evil. Our very being, our very instincts to favor good are but an extension of the Father’s hand, His offer to build a relationship with us; to sow His love that we may act with love.  It is not until we step outside our relationship with the Father that our morality becomes muddied by the waters of society. If only we could step back that we may develop a relationship with the Father then our moral dilemmas would become quite clear; forethought of goodness.  This is not to say that every decision would be easy, actually sometimes, quite the opposite for going against the gains of society requires courage we can only attain in Christ.  Just because it is popular does not mean something is right, a truth we can clearly distinguish once we align our hearts with the Father.  While the Father knows our heart, it is we who need to become humbled, we who need to drop our egos for with humanity comes free will; our opportunity to gather close to or far away from the Father’s wisdom.  Partaking in His reality we are made aware of innate truths, truths often compromised by human propaganda; truths serviced by human tongue.  The heart knows the truth of goodness, the truth of moral expectations; we need only listen to hear then have the courage to act upon such truths, not because of its popularity but rather because it is right.  If we allow our values to be compromised then each look into the mirror, a stranger will gaze back; however, should we invest in our relationship with the Father, that stranger no longer a stranger but rather a symbol of love with an understanding of truth aligned with the greatness of the Father.  By what set of rules are we going to determine our morality?
