Inspirational Blog 2
All of us are looking for some kind of fulfillment to bring us peace. We need it to justify our existence. And we invest ourselves in to whatever we believe that would fulfill us.
What really fulfills us is God.
Jesus is our fulfillment. It is either you accept that or reject it. But the fact will not change. You need Him!
Only Jesus can satisfy our hunger for fulfillment, meaning and purpose. To reject Him will not take away that hunger, that longing. It will only be directed to something else.
The Catechism teaches us that we are religious beings by nature. It means that we will seek fulfillment, meaning and purpose religiously. We are all fanatics, only the object of our fanaticism changes. We have seen how people have religiously sought money, power, fame and sex. They have devoted all their waking hours pursuing it. They have offered their life to them. They are their gods.
We will always be fans of something or someone. So are you a Jesus fan or your own?
Choosing our god will direct our way of life. And it a direction towards Heaven or Hell.
"All that God has created is good and is good for us. But once this “good” becomes god, it will now be the instrument of our destruction. Evil is always a distortion of good, evil cannot create. Satan can only distort what God has created."
Sex is good, but being a rapist isn’t. Money is good, but being a thief isn’t. Power is good, but being a tyrant isn’t.

Success of Declaration of Independence
In my opinion, the things that made the declaration of independence successful were that the Constitution knew what they wanted and had goals and plan to get it. They went straight to the spurce of the problem which were the British.
The failure however, in my opinion is that they were fighting aganist a strong opponent: the British. They the British were a difficult group to defeat.
