I think religion is at the heart of so much discontent, and idiocy in the world. I think all faith is terror.” For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “BUT THE RIGHTEOUS man SHALL LIVE BY FAITH.” For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “The just shall live by faith.”

The fourth daughter, La Loca, behaves in a peculiar fashion (after her supposed death and resurrection at age three), becoming averse to human smell and the physical closeness of anyone except her mother, possessed of a special affinity to animals, a child who becomes a woman without ever leaving the confines of the area surrounding her house. In a different place, she might have been called autistic—a psychological word stripped of the mythical connotations and spiritual gifts attributed to La Loca. If I’m counseling a married couple, I might ask them to describe the beginning of their relationship and what it was like when they first met. These are often the good memories we so easily forget. Similarly, when God answers our prayers or shows up in unexpected ways, we may rejoice in the moment, but forget about it months or years down the road. Strong's 235: But, except, however.

I encourage you to be honest about your views, as God knows them anyway, and then hold them under the light to examine if they’re true.Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age. - Matthew 28:20 Next, you may be feeling far from God because you are distracted by the things of the world.
