Otherwise we have no choice but to believe in God or disbelieve in God and neither is true, for the truth is beyond belief!” WorldMindBelieveRealMomentsPastChoicesBeliefLostTruth IsAll ThingsBelieve In GodPresence Of GodFuture WorldGod Is Real Author:Leonard Jacobson
“You don't realize that if you stop looking backwards craving the love and acceptance which you didn't receive from your parents, then you might open your eyes to what is available for you now.
