“There are going to be tears in Heaven, because God is going to have to wipe them away. No doubt many of us will cry when we first arrive there and realize just how much our many mistakes have cost and lost. But God will wipe away all these tears, and comfort and encourage us and inspire us for the future, so we can forget the past. There will be tears, but thank God He will wipe them away with His joy. Then there will be no more tears and no more years, only a happy eternity!” YearsFirstsPastJoyLostHeavenRealizingForgetMistakeDoubtCryTearsInspireComfortCostEternityGods WillNo DoubtHeavenlyThank GodWipeForget The Past Author:David Berg

“...there is no resistance to the idea that what is foreign can be known. Can be understood. Can be held in the embrace of love that holds the Universe. Given this Earth on which we live and grow, given its beauty and generosity, its majesty and comfort, how can one doubt that one is loved? That in fact there is an abundance, not a scarcity of love? It is all anyone ever wants, really, I believe, and it is all around us as we starve.” WantBelieveIdeasFactsEarthUniverseGivenI BelieveGrowsKnownDoubtComfortUnderstoodEmbraceResistanceGenerosityAbundanceMajestyScarcity Author:Alice Walker
“Religion is a complex and often contradictory force in our world. It fosters hope and comfort but also doubt and guilt. It creates both community and exclusion. It brings societies together around shared belief and tears them apart through war. However, what unites the faithful, whatever their religion, is the unshakeable force of generosity.” WorldWarTogetherBeliefForceCommunityDoubtTearsComfortGuiltComplexesGenerosityFaithfulOur WorldContradictoryExclusion Author:Laura Arrillaga-Andreessen
