Jesus innovated religious thought by presenting God as a loving Father.

Before Him, the concept of a jealous, angry and vengeful god prevailed.

However, it is often perplexing that the children of a loving God are constantly facing suffering.

Living is hard work.

All creatures are always surrounded by challenges and anguish.

As blessed as someone may seem, it always goes through some ailments.

Divinity has indeed created all creatures to be happy.

The thing is that the cosmic order was not established to support the happiness of sloth and selfishness.

The Universe is dynamic and creatures must learn to appreciate working in order to collaborate with progress.

Humankind must play his part in improving life's physical and moral conditions.

Everybody must face challenges in order to grow, get stronger and develop themselves.

In this learning process, each one answers for the good or bad use of his time and resources.

Considering that selfishness is still widely found in Humankind, it is no cause for surprise that there is much to be redeemed.

From that stems the spectacles of serious diseases and pain.

However, the purpose of Law is not to punish, but to educate and rectify.

It is meant to lead those at fault to reparation and good, not to pain.

Suffering only lasts the necessary time for the wish of reparation to start bearing fruit.

It is not enough to regret and suffer moral and physically.

All evil must be repaired so that peace will take hold in the creature's core.

Balance, peace and health are reflections of harmony with the cosmic order.

In the context of a single physical existence, reparation should ideally be complete and to the person harmed.

By assuming its own mistakes, without disguises, the person faces its pride and vanity and moves forward.

In spite of it, direct reparations are not always possible.

Sometimes, when knowledge of a mistake arises, the person that was harmed is no longer around.

There are also the errors of previous physical existences, whose victims have already forgiven and moved on.

Strictly speaking, such mistakes are committed against the Cosmic Order, represented to a certain extent by the victim.

It is a debt against life and must be paid accordingly.

Therefore, it is important to acquire a taste for goodness and become an agent of progress.

Support the wretches of the world, whoever they are.

Forgive offenses, understand the frailties of others and be an example of hard working, purity and kindness.

That is the essential purpose of Law: that goodness arises in the hearts of the creatures and be exteriorized by dignified actions.

Think about it.
