A lot of people are trapped in a lifestyle of sin and idolatry; whether subtly with things like coffee and cigarettes or in outright addictions like drugs and pornography. Of course there are times that call for a, “You need to put the pipe down”; but a person will never be delivered from sin and idolatry by trying to stop.

The Pain Doesn't Have to Last
In my life, many people have opened up to me about broken relationships or the loss of loved ones that brought them deep sorrow. I started seeing so many people go on for years, sometimes decades, unable to fully process the separation or death of those who passed. It resulted in them reliving the memory year after year without moving forward completely. There may be a degree of sadness when someone you love passes away, but if their home is heaven; that is reason to rejoice, not sustain lifelong suffering. Especially if our home is heaven; this means we will see them again, and live in the midst of love and joy with them forever. God did not create us to live our lives in anguish.

to him. Stereo-typically, he wanted to know if there really is a God
then where was he while all these bad things were happening to him. Listening to his story; the details
had similarities to mine, and I had great compassion. This caused me to be so
grieved for how many people this has happened to, and angry at the devil for
his tactics.
