These next few thoughts may be from a couple of nights of insomnia, but I this is what I have been pondering.
If we can understand how to hate cancer or other terminal illnesses and love the victim of these diseases, then why is it that we can't understand this is how God feels about sin and all people.
A person can only give you true love when they are allowed not to love you at all, it is only then that love is freely given.
Of every emotion that we process, none is as powerful as love.
Our need for privacy is part of the curse and not the cure.
When Jesus described the Kingdom of Heaven, He described it as a celebration with food, drink, loud music, & dancing.
When we have the ability to acknowledge ourselves and to laugh at ourselves, we remove any pleasure that certain others may get from making fun of us.
Escapism can be an attempt to return to life in Eden, even if is it only in our imaginations.
A person grows best when they are allowed to fail.
There is an indescribable joy that comes when another person asks you to come with them as they step past their fears to experience and grow by doing something new.
There is also an indescribable joy that comes when someone-else comes with you as you step past your fears to experience and grow by doing something new.
