Much is said about the negativity of the world and of mankind's inhumanity to each other and the way in which we neglect the earth. I would like to know, what do you believe is mankind's, greatest quality?

By far and away our biggest selling point is our ability to grow and evolve on our own initiative. We are unique on the earth, not because of our power, but because we can choose how to use it. You can depend on things getting better eventually when the human race is around.

Our biggest quality is our connection to God. We may choose to engage this or go the other way. But remember what the bible says "i am the vine and you are the branches...without me you can do nothing...if you are disconnected you will wither like chaff." i often pray this verse in praise of the grace God has given to me. and quite often i also pray the verse "nobody can say to God "what are you doing"" i must be meek and accept that God is so great he can give us great hardship. they are all lessons.
We do indeed make our bed and then lay in it. My spirit guide showed me that we also just make the natural mistakes of youth and suffer the consequences so that we can learn. The bible says to know evil and in another verse it says to wax strong in the spirit. it has been such a difficult time for me kaz but i am in a good place now. i am clean and i have a good life ahead of me because i have sought the Lord, conquered many shortcomings, lay prostrate before the Lord and am dependent upon him in realization the people, including myself, are little more than apes that wear clothes in comparison to the greatness of God. who can do anything and we must accept and conquer the trials and tribulations he has put before us.
Reverential fear of the Lord is good and i see his love in the mercy and grace he has bestowed upon me. i was such a bad puppy i got everything i deserved. but i am clean now and i know i willl be seeing the loving God./

I agree with Jess in that our connection to God is a very important quality and it's up there on the list... but for me, it's our capacity to love and the fact that we're conscious of the presence of God in all things that sets us apart. It is this capacity of love and compassion that helps us to understand our world... it is this love that keeps us searching for truth... it is this love that even though we fall, helps us get back up again... This capacity for love within our consciousness is recognized by many labels... but at the root, no matter what label we use... this love is unconditional love given to us by God... and it is this unconditional love that sustains us... even when we don't recognize it.
God bless, Silvia

Jessie, Although I agree that we survive on our connection to God/Source, I don't think that human beings need to think of themselves as lowly. I feel that at times thinking that way makes some more prone to "sin" because we think of ourselves as not 'good' enough to be 'good'. In fact, if we are made by a great and mighty God, we must also be great and mighty. Isn't a bit of God's greatness inside of us? I also don't believe that many of the trials and tribulations we endure are necessary. Even though many of life's struggles are there to help us learn and grow, we often create our own difficulties. I don't think that all negative situations are punishments or tests from God. That's my opinion.
I do believe in staying connected to God, which may mean different things to different people, because He made us and gives us our energy.
Maybe our greatest quality is that we are somewhat like God in that we can create, we can create worlds inside our minds and create the world around us.
I hope that made sense.

Clara I agree about the fact that our ability to create worlds inside our minds and around us is good. But I think I would have to agree with Silvia with our greatest quality being the ability to love. In that ability we gain compassion and forgiveness. Forgiveness especially.
So I would have to say our greatest quality is love which enables us to have compassion and utilize forgiveness.
Blessings Dee

i can see that i am in this chat room with much higher people than myself. the bible talks about generational curses and i can see that this is the perfect fairness of God. so in a nutshell if you try to be a good puppy and i don't is it fair that my descendents are as holy as yours. i had a great grandfather in Sardinia that would keep you in his house for three weeks before he finally killed you. i am no longer under generational curses but had quite a bit of trial and tribulation before i got here. i can see that God is fair but i am so angry for the sins of my fathers i did actually need to pay for. i am insanely jealous of people living charmed lives. i have every frustration and resentment. although i choose to be a good puppy i want everybody else to get in trouble too. much of what i do is in fear of more punishment. although i do have moments of tranquility where the love just flows and will forgive anythiing under the sun. it seems my peers here have this situation much more than i do. i made my peace with god last night and my soul is clean. the camora for this was a recent episode where my bottom was telepathically attacked and i have stun gun wounds there. i was screaming like a witch but managed to forgive this and turn it over to god. i sought wooba rather than revenge so actually i am a really good puppy. this is the beginning of a new chapter starting last night where my soul is clean and i may actually catch up to my peers here at the godlight(but not the really powerful ones) as an effective love and light worker.

Awww Jess, we are all the same (that’s what peers mean ) we all have ‘generational curses’ to contend with in our lives just like you. Many just aren’t aware of their ancestral background and so, they see the troubles in their lives as “Why is God punishing me?” They have not researched deep enough into themselves to realize that some issues are generational… so you see you have a step up on some ppl…. You have to remember that we are all at different stages in our lives… like we are all different ages here… so often those that are older will appear to know more or be happier to you, because they have gone through/worked out their personal issues already… as you are doing now… if you look back a year ago in your own life, I’m sure you’ll see that you are not the same you were back then… you’ll see that even though you are still experiencing some tough issues there are some areas of your life where you are happier and that just shows you that all your work is very much worth the effort that you put into it…. Just because you see a smiling face doesn’t mean that person is living a ‘charmed’ life… many ppl are very good at putting on a ‘brave’ face for the world… while inside they are crying for help. You never know what is going on in someone else’s life… let go of the judgment and the jealousy will dissipate. God bless, Silvia

Dear Jessie,
I think we're on the same boat. I think we experience similar things, even if they're not exactly identical. Sometimes we may fool ourselves into thinking we are 'higher' or 'lower' than someone else.
