It has been said that it is better to have loved and lost than to have never loved. I don’t think I agree. What if you knew God, who is love, and then lost him and spent an eternity without him, having once known him?
…………This then is how we know that we belong to the truth, and how we set our hearts at rest in his presence whenever our hearts condemn us. For God is greater than our hearts, and he knows everything. 1 John 3:19&20
"That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong."
