Biography
Beliefs
Darkness can never overpower light.
         Darkness is only an obstruction of light.
Darkness cannot exist without there first being light.
        Light can always exist without darkness
.
         I always once wondered,
       why, if God was all-knowing
and all-powerful, did He allow us to suffer.
If He knew how we would ultimately end up,  
            why not just skip all this?
                    Life is hard.
Finally, it dawned on me, so obvious now.     
  I realized...He's not doing this for Himself.
             He's doing this for us.
Just like a parent watching their child           
                stumble and fall
      so they will learn how to walk.
                It hurts to watch.
 It's hard to imagine, in a spiritual sense,       
    what it will be like if we can ever quit         
         crawling and learn how to run!
