Commentary on - People Are Awesome in Funny Stuff



People can try anything just to prove their prowess and talents in this world, no matter what the cost, even if it is life itself.

Life has become a game for the thrill seekers.


Lest we come to our senses that this life is really 'very short' as compared with the 'life eternal' that our Creator is preparing for those who believe in Him and follow His commandments, we will not be able to fully grasp our true purpose in life.  

It is truly awesome to see these stunts on what man can do.

But while we are entertained, let us hope and pray that people would try to see the true meaning of life.

Is it to be popular in this world and forget what God has made us for, or what purpose do we have while living this life?

What if we accidentally die because of our carelessness and our carefree attitude, would we have made our life meaningful, or just put it to waste?

We would we be remembered more by having entertained people in futility for our own self satisfaction and fame as we fail to realize the reason for our being?

Or would it had been better if we did this to inspire people to praise and glorify God for his having gifted us with talents that others may be awed by God's great and versatile creation in us?

Without Him, we would not have been in this world to begin with?

In Matthew 16:25-26, he tells his disciples, “For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for me will find it. What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul?”


Offering our talents, our knowledge and our treasures to serve and glorify our Creator is but just fitting to return back to Him the gift of life, and later find ourselves rewarded with a greater gift, an everlasting life of happiness in heaven, don't you think this will be the most sought after gift after death?

  1. As the song goes, "Don't worry be happy." Yes, it is in Christ's teachings not to worry because this "will not add a day" in our life. But if we choose to end it abruptly due to life threatening daring stunts carelessly done for self glorification, then we are not doing anything good for mankind and our true purpose in this life loses its true meaning.
