Honest, painful questions often lead to transformation. They break through the barriers of denial and distraction, clawing desperately for the truth.

Few questions are as raw or painful as this, repeated so often by so many:

Why do we still cling to this idea of an Almighty God of Love, when it feels like God doesn’t love us? Why should we love this God unconditionally when life feels so lacking?

When a question is asked in pain, often the answer lies in hope.

This Almighty God hopes we will love Him unconditionally, because loving God unconditionally is the highest form of joy and satisfaction a human being is capable of experiencing.

That bears repeating.

Loving God unconditionally is the highest form of joy and satisfaction a human being is capable of experiencing.
