Many of us suffer because we think that if people don’t really love us, then we will have to live forever without love. But it’s not true. The greatest sense of love, which is available for us at all times, is God’s love.

It's not about finding ways to avoid God's judgment and feeling like a failure if you don't do everything perfectly. It's about fully experiencing God's love and letting it perfect you. It's not about being somebody you are not. It's about becoming who you really are.

Seeking God first will always put us in the correct position and aim us in the right direction to move into the future God has for us.

Start today like a new beginning, and not a repeat.

It's helpful to remember that God doesn't belong to Christians, Jews, Muslims or anyone. We belong to God, not the other way around.

Faith is about the connection of people as much as it is about God. We are called to be in community and treat others with divine love.
