“Emotional and psychological pain were to become, perhaps, the most powerful force in molding the course of my life. For some people, pain and hurt breed bitterness and cynicism. For others it causes them to look deeply into themselves and into life itself in an attempt to understand the meaning beneath seemingly capricious or arbitrary happenings.” PeopleLooksPainCoursesForceCausesHurtPowerfulEmotionalHappeningsPsychologicalMost PowerfulBitternessCynicismArbitraryCapriciousMoldingPsychological Pain Book:Never Alone: A Personal Way to God Source: Never Alone: A Personal Way to God
“Religion would certainly be more relevant to the hurting masses of humanity if people could express their hopes and dreams and pain and anguish to one another in the context of religious worship. As it is now our services are so antiseptic and sterile that people gathering for worship relate to others at only the most superficial level, and hardly ever get to know one another. . . . Maybe that is one of the reasons why people feel religion is irrelevant, because they cannot find support and solace during times of crisis and pain. That is when real religion should be at its best.” PeopleIfsKnowsFeelsShouldRealReasonDreamPainReligionHumanityHurtReligiousLevelsSupportWorshipMassCrisisRelateReason WhyRelevantSuperficialAnguishIrrelevantGatheringSolaceHopes And DreamsTimes Of Crisis Author:Joseph Girzone
