We, as a nation, and as 'Western Civilization' have arrogantly turned our backs on God, and willfully placed our souls on the throne of our hearts--a place God created for Himself alone. The selfishness is rampant among "leadership" and the common man. Watch how people drive, how people park, how people operate their carts in the grocery store--"it's ME, first and always". Watch and listen to how people treat other people--respect is minimal, because people don't truly respect themselves. And they can't respect themselves because, deep down, they know they are not doing right. They are doing what they think will exalt and protect themselves.
Only being born again by the Spirit of God, only by surrendering and receiving Jesus will we know who we truly are and feel safe and content in the Father's love and discipline. Without discipline, we do not know how we should behave and act towards others. Without discipline, we will not know the direction we should go in, or how we should carry ourselves along the way. Without His Love, we don't know what our value--our worth to God--truly is. Without His Love, we are INsecure, and constantly searching for something or someone to make us feel worth-y. Without His Love, we don't know what real love is.
