Quote: Nobody is saying it is wrong. It's just that there is a better way to do things, that's all.

The irony is that I agree with what you're saying 100%, I just think that the method of getting there is different. I believe that by focusing on God, then what you're saying about making the best out of every present moment is an inedible outcome.

Basically I’m saying that we shouldn’t live for the moment and focus on doing the right thing to get closer to God,……


But instead we should live for God and focus on Him and then we will truly be living for every moment and truly be able to do what’s right.
