He Accepted What Each Moment Brough Him,

Here I Am Going To Say Something Which May Come As A Bit Of A Shock. God Doesn't Necessarily Want Us To Be Happy. He Wants Us To Be Lovable. Worthy Of Love. Able To Be Loved By Him. We Don't Start Off Being All That Lovable, If We're Honest. What Makes People Hard To Love? Isn't It What Is Commonly Called Selfishness? Selfish People Are Hard To Love Because So Little Love Comes Out Of Them.

We Read To Know That We Are Not Alone.

I Pray Because I Can't Help Myself. I Pray Because I'm Helpless. I Pray Because The Need Flows Out Of Me All The Time- Waking And Sleeping. It Doesn't Change God- It Changes Me.
