Our greatest fear should not be of failure but of succeeding at things in life that don't really matter.

Francis ChanIf God is truly the greatest good on this earth, would He be loving us if He didnโt draw us toward what is best for us (even if that happens to be Himself)? Doesnโt His courting, luring, pushing, calling and even โthreateningโ demonstrate His love? If He didnโt do all of that, wouldnโt we accuse Him of being unloving in the end, when all things are revealed?
