Values" dont only apply to Art as with colors. They don't only belong to "familys" as in the term,"family values".
At the core of all values, lives the standards upon which one chooses to live their life. Each person chooses the standard upon which they will accept, deny or reject what is "right" for them.
If they are true to their core values with conviction.. one would expect them to treat others, as they would themselves, want to be treated.
Values, come from core principles. Principles are the concepts that come from the core of VIRTUES. VIRTUES exist as core TRUTHS.. TRUTH IS, THE ETERNAL CHRIST.
Do you know what your values are? Do you know the standards by which you live? Are you even aware of what a standard is? Do they reflect the quality of your inner being? If you believed Christ lived inside you..would you change your life, in anyway? Would you treat yourself better? Would you be more conscious of what you do or say? Would you disrespect anyone, would you be very different from who you are today? What would you do, or be different, if you knew Christ were living inside of you?
What would the first thing you would change? Would you be more patient and or kind? Would you be more self contained, rather that need to be constantly entertained? Would you be more forthright with your inner truth? Would it be harder to tell a lie, or make up an excuse?
What if you knew His Heart may suffer with even the smallest untruth? Would you try harder to be a better, more truthful you?
Would you give more thought to your life, if you knew He were living within you? What would you not allow yourself to participate in , if you knew He was watching it too? What would you change? Would you begin to weed out, what you know He wouldnt like, and replace it with what you believe would better honor HIM?
If you knew Christ lived inside your heart, would values mean more than the word "whatever?" Would you want to live more by His standards? Would you know what those standards are? Would everything have more meaning? Would your purpose in life, matter more? Would you see yourself as His expression? If you knew you were supposed to be His likeness in the world?
