What do you do on a daily basis to make Earth more heaven-like?

Question

Do you have a lifetime goal to enrich the planet thereby leaving it a more heavenly place for future generations?

Answer 1

It's a great question, Mithra, but it's kind of difficult to answer in the affirmative without sounding like a self-promoting holy-roller ! :-)

I do my best to try to make life more enjoyable for any I encounter on my way, if I can help, and help is wanted I do what I can. If I can put a smile on someone's face I do, if I can show someone a little care and consideration when they don't seem to be getting much, I do.

Overall, and longer term I would like to help put an end to war, as a human activity. I have my own personal reasons for this, going back many manifestations.

But having said all that one of my favourite Stones numbers, from the Babylon album, is "You'll never make a saint of me". ;-)

Answer 2

I fight theocrats everywhere who want everyone to think just like them...Imagine a world with no religion.....oh the sanity....oh the peace...that is what I work for everyday. Religion back in the home where it belongs, not in the courts, executive or legislature and as far as cultural theocracy well I would never live in Utah! or Saudi Arabia

Answer 3

I try to be more like Jesus. Since He is in heaven and no one will see Him while on Earth, I will be his representative. If I have His mentality, I can spread a little of heaven to everyone I come in contact with.

Answer 4

smile, laugh, meditate, contemplate, strive to be compassionate and kind, work on my road rage issues, create beauty, recycle.
I am an artist, and use sustainable woods or reclaimed woods in my work.

I began a long time ago, when I decided to invest myself in a serious effort towards my own self-realization. The idea being, as I refine, those energies expand on a subtle level, and assist others to refine themselves as well- no matter what their belief.

Answer 5

I don't know about "heaven-like" (since nobody has ever given a factual account of such a place), but I keep my home "squared away" and vote for public officials who have a realistic view towards the treatment of our environment.

Answer 6

This is a great question.
I spread kindness and perform acts of kindness that go unnoticed at times. Why? Because it spreads. The only way to change the earth is to actually show kindness and appreciation to others. Then they share it.

Answer 7

I know its my job and I get paid for it but ...I enrich the lives of people who have disiblities. Like I brought a woman who has cerebal palsey, dosent talk and in a wheelchair, to walmart to look at toys. I didnt get paid to do that. I love my job and I cant believe that I get paid for what I do.

Answer 8

I spread the good news that sin has brought death and destruction into this world but that God so loved the world that He gave his only begotten Son so that whosoever believes on Him will not perish but have eternal life.

While we live in a fallen world, those who put their trust in Jesus and receive God's Holy Spirit will be freed from not just the penalty but also the power of sin in their lives. They can start to do the good works that God has prepared in advance for them to do and as people live a new life in Christ this world will be changed for the better one person at a time.

Ephesians 2:4 But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, 5 even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ--by grace you have been saved-- 6 and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, 7 so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.

8 For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, 9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast.

10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.

Answer 9

I always try to be extra nice to the drive thru people in fast food restaurants. I know it sounds goofy but they have to deal with some REALLY rude people. I have seen more them smile at me for it then I can count. It always makes me feel good to know I made some one's day. Pay it forward!

Answer 10

Earth is Earth and sky is sky. Both have their own places. But we can try to make our Earth a more comfortable place to all of us. Kindness is the clue. Sometimes I can manage it, sometimes not. But I try.
