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. | hate love anti-racism belief-in-nonviolence children-victims-of-war civility compassion-love compassion-wisdom coping-with-change courage-to-love discourse-on-a-better-world ending-terrorism ending-war faith-in-love finding-strength-in-love global-peace-movement global-village good-versus-evil hate-versus-love higher-consciousness hope-for-humanity interfaith-dialogue international-community jihadism-and-love jihadists-and-love living-without-fear love-and-jihad multiculturalismo police-culture quotes-for-the-new-year radical-grace sustainbale-humanity trusting-love faith-in-humanity peacism postered-poetics-by-aberjhani antiracism spiritual-philosophy enemy-quotes coexistence quote-of-the-day unconditional-love fear-of-love making-a-difference compassion-heals-lives human-rights-day national-history-day nonviolent-conflict-resolution police-reform mindfulness terrorism multiculturalism xenophobia diversity wisdom-quotes race-relations philosophy-of-life ideas human-nature | 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. | omniscience good-versus-evil good-vs-evil | Sean Patrick Brennan |
