Is It the Right Thing or the Wrong Thing to Do?

There is no absolute value for morality. What is the right thing for one person may be wrong for another. In fact, we can't even measure whether something is right or bad. In order to define what's right, we need to understand why it's right. This isn't always clear-cut, but a simple test is whether it causes pain or pleasure to others.


We can begin by defining morality. The right thing to do is an action that promotes our relationships. On the other hand, the wrong thing to do is one that damages our relationships. We can't be sure what is good, but we can try. A good action makes a relationship better. Trying to do something the wrong way is just as bad.

In the case of King David, he tried to bring the ark of God to Jerusalem, where the people of Israel could worship God. Instead of treating it right, the king and his people hurled it with the wrong intent. They didn't wait for the Lord's timing. But this is a common scenario. It's hard to say which way is best.

For the rest of us, it's hard to know which way is better. There's a big difference between doing the right thing and doing the wrong thing. The former is better for society and the other is worse. Oftentimes, the right action makes things better. The wrong one is worse. A good one helps the world and our relationship. And a bad one damages it.

Peter Drucker said "Doing the right thing is a matter of wisdom, effectiveness, and efficiency. But doing the wrong thing makes us wronger. The wrong one makes us even worse. When we try to do the right thing, we make ourselves even more wrong. And almost every major social issue has a similar story. We don't know which is the best, but we must do what's right.

Choosing the right action is crucial in building a strong relationship with God. It's also important to choose the right actions for yourself and your loved ones. When you do the right thing, you're doing the most effective and wisest thing. By choosing the correct action, you'll be able to avoid making mistakes and achieving results faster. You'll also be happier if you're doing the wrong things.
