It is very powerful when, NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS, each person in a relationship can look at the other and know that NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS, the other will choose to control themselves, cast out fear with love, and pursue the goal of connection.~Danny Silk

Codependency is driven by the agreement that I will work harder on your problem and your life than you do. This is not love.~Danny Silk

Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you. (Philippians 4:8-9)

In spiritual matters, a person can educate himself in theology to the degree that it does more harm than good. It is possible to win a theological battle and yet lose the war for a person's heart. Arguments over points of theology often distract from the more important issues. There is no premium on ignorance, but love is infinitely superior to knowledge. We should learn all we can, but we must make our knowledge a servant to love. "The greatest of these is love" (1 Cor. 13:13).
If anyone's quest for knowledge leads them away from knowing God, then it would have been preferable for them to stay ignorant. What we know is not as important as who we know (speaking of the Lord). Our most important goal in life must be to love God and be known of Him.~Andrew Womack

You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view... Until you climb inside of his skin and walk around in it.

People are often unreasonable and self-centered. Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.
If you are honest, people may cheat you. Be honest anyway.
If you find happiness, people may be jealous. Be happy anyway.
The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough. Give your best anyway.
For you see, in the end, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway. Mother Teresa of Calcutta

He creates the universe, already foreseeing or should we say seeing? there are no tenses in God the buzzing cloud of flies about the cross, the flayed back pressed against the uneven stake, the nails driven through the mesial nerves, the repeated torture of back and arms as it is time after time, for breaths sake, hitched up. . . Herein is love. This is the diagram of Love Himself, the investor of all loves
