Sure nice guys may finish last here, unfortunately, but for sure are foremost in the eternity hereafter.
Earthly rewards are far more different and much less superior than heavenly rewards.
Simply because we are in the world, we are not to be of the world.
Sorry...I am simply not going change my heart and who I am for the negative no matter how badly I may 'want a piece' and hunger/desire so intensely for some human companionship love.
The state of our hearts should be pleasing to the Most High and should not be altered negatively simply to please others or for our own self pleasure.
In summary, it's best to remain righteous, kind hearted and real. Sure we can gain apparently 'good' things by making some negative adjustments, but the absolute truth is that it is not worth it in the end. All those jerks out there living 'lavishly' will most definitely have to answer for their jerkyness and feel the effects in eternity, and be booted back further in 'line.' I would much rather have great things for eternity and miss out during the blink of an eye existence on earth, than to indulge while on earth losing my heart and lose out on blessings for eternity. Truly, what does it profit a man to gain the whole world but lose his soul?!!!
For the lonely, kind hearted men out there....believe me, I know it hurts greatly, but don't change your kind heart just for some artificial companionship. The Most High sees your heart and will not forget.
All the blessings to you!
