Be united with other Christians. A wall with loose bricks is not good. The bricks must be cemented together.

Hold loosely to the things of this life, so that if God requires them of you, it will be easy to let them go.

Do you know what hurts so very much? It's love. Love is the strongest force in the world, and when it is blocked that means pain. There are two things we can do when this happens.
