There are some addictions that are extremely crafty in their nature…
The deepest emotional need for a human being is to FEEL loved; to receive worth, significance, and a sense of security.
The manifestations of this need are amazingly varied in our lives from the dizzying highs of sincere, faithful relationships to the abysmal lows of addictions and mental ailments.
It’s incredible that two people, both severely wounded by identical traumas, brought to a place of despair and longing, can have opposite reactions to the Gospel…
Life is a series of unexpected, surprising tests. But each and every test has a purpose.
It’s perfectly logical to think that if we appease everybody, we all win. But both history and profound spiritual morality show us that appeasement never works. Why? Appeasement emerges from self-interest. It’s not about other parties being happy. It’s about the appeaser being happy…such a model for collective peace and prosperity can never work.
