0a91243 If the idea of loving those whom you have been taught to recognize as your enemies is too overwhelming, consider more deeply the observation that we are all much more alike than we are unalike. anti-racism antiracism belief-in-nonviolence children-victims-of-war civility coexistence compassion-heals-lives compassion-love compassion-wisdom coping-with-change courage-to-love discourse-on-a-better-world diversity ending-terrorism ending-war enemy-quotes faith-in-humanity faith-in-love fear-of-love finding-strength-in-love global-peace-movement global-village good-versus-evil hate hate-versus-love higher-consciousness hope-for-humanity human-nature human-rights-day ideas interfaith-dialogue international-community jihadism-and-love jihadists-and-love living-without-fear love love-and-jihad making-a-difference mindfulness multiculturalism multiculturalismo national-history-day nonviolent-conflict-resolution peacism philosophy-of-life police-culture police-reform postered-poetics-by-aberjhani quote-of-the-day quotes-for-the-new-year race-relations radical-grace spiritual-philosophy sustainbale-humanity terrorism trusting-love unconditional-love wisdom-quotes xenophobia Aberjhani
4541038 Why the delay? Why does God let evil and pain so flagrantly exist, even thrive, on this planet?...He holds back for our sakes. Re-creation involves us; we are, in fact, at the center of his plan...the motive behind all human history, is to develop us, not God. Our very existence announces to the powers in the universe that restoration is under way. Every act of faith by every one of the people of God is like the tolling of a bell, and a faith like Job's reverberates throughout the universe. faith god good-versus-evil job Philip Yancey
8879070 My friends, if there is one gift in my omniscience, it's the knowledge I have of just how much good is out there. When I'm disappointed in my children near and far who hurt others, I am reminded of the many souls who do not hurt others. I see a smack across the face in one part of the planet at the same time as I see a thousand hugs and kisses somewhere else. Love is everywhere. And if all the forces of good were stacked up against all the forces of evil, it would be a most unfair fight. Good would always win. My dears, good will always win. good-versus-evil good-vs-evil omniscience Sean Patrick Brennan
