What We Can Learn

Many times people fight over very simple things. Brothers fight about which TV program to watch and even simpler problems. This is what happens to many countries they will go to war over very small problems which can be solved with dialogue. This is a big mistake and when they do this they don’t realize how much they are hurting their country. You can see this in the bible, David said god supported him and he had his power. People would fight because of who had gods power and in many cases the person with god’s power won. They would fight for things as slavery “Choose you a man for you, and let him come down to me. If he be able to fight with me, and to kill me, then will we be your servants: but if I prevail against him, and kill him, then shall ye be our servants, and serve us.” (Samuel 17, 8) We have to take these examples and learn from them. David started losing gods support slowly and we can realize that great power has to be very well kept but it can go very easily. We have to think about what we fight over and if it is worth it. If I start applying this in my life I am sure I will fight less with my brother. They bible has lots of examples which you have to apply to your life in order to learn from them, if we are able to do this we will become better people.
