Believe or Reject
I would recommend you either believe God up to the hilt, or else not to believe at all. Believe this book of God, every letter of it, or else reject it. There is no logical standing place between the two. Be satisfied with nothing less than a faith that swims in the deeps of

where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
and where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master, grant that

We should be here to commune with God only and if we are here for any other reason we should not be here.
And I must say this also...we should have prepared to be here. How? On our knees praying for guidance.
Why do I say
