“ a man cannot hate unless he hates himself. Likewise one can only love another if they love themselves. ”
It’s easier to love the idol than to love Him. The path is narrow, and few find it because they are afraid. We have made God into an idol to fear because we made ourselves to be worthless. The object of God's love has been manipulated to be contemptible.

The courage to live in the present, between time and timelessness. No matter the circumstance, it is where life is found.
