The degree to which we believe in something determines how much we hold onto it. The problem of our society today is too many unbelievers and some who have believed the wrong thing! It is not just enough to believe, you should believe the right thing! So many are tossed up and down on almost every issue and principle and as such they are confuse and gullible.
Today, they are believers of one principle, tomorrow they believe something else! They do not strongly believe anything so as to hold onto it. Of which, everything a man does is on the basis of his beliefs. Character is simply an expression of the core values a man believes in. This is one reason we have so many persons who are not consistent in character in our society.
Many people are indifferent in a lot of things, they just go about loose without committing themselves to anything. For them, everything goes in as much as it is convenient and comfortable. Strength of character is seen in how one holds onto right values! A persistent demonstration of one's belief irrespective of the situation or circumstances defines character.
Why do people find it difficult to believe? Mostly because they have only a shallow idea of what they are to believe, as a result they do not know how certain such beliefs are. Meanwhile, most persons are not willing to diligently investigate or research on anything nor are they ready to take responsibility. Believing is responsibility and some people are too unreliable to be responsible.
One must be ready to stand without wavering and defend his belief but most people just want an easy life without restriction from anything. Therefore, many have no direction in life because they are not resolute enough to stand no matter the odds rather, they keep running from pillar to post in search of milk and honey, butter and bread, where you don't have to work but earn money and live big for instance.
But life is obviously not designed that way, there are principles and laws in operation and like a set up, everything operates in systems. What do you believe? Your belief determines your everything; your perception and perspective, your attitude and character, your motives and actions etc. Be guided!
