The most common way Jesus comes into our lives is through a broken heart.

There are many pitfalls in the marathon of life. But regardless of what you go through, you can count on God's sustaining grace.

Since God intends to make you like Jesus, he will take you through the same experiences Jesus went through. That includes loneliness, temptation, stress, criticism, rejection, and many other problems.

Our time on earth and our energy, intelligence, opportunities, relationships, and resources are all gifts from God that he has entrusted to our care and management. We are stewards of whatever God gives us. This concept of stewardship begins with the recognition that God is the owner of everything and everyone on earth. ... We never actually own anything during our brief stay on earth. God just loans the earth to us while we're here. It was God's property before you arrived, and God will loan it to someone else after you die.

So I would say God hates war, but God loves every soldier.

Leaders don't do what they WANT to do;they do whatever is necessary.

If someone broke your heart it doesn't mean you should build a wall around it and quit loving. Redirect your love.
