Love's Secret
Feelings of love can create intimacy that overpowers reason. But feelings aren't enough to support a lasting relationship. We should treat our romantic attractions with patience --- waiting for feelings of love and of commitment to develop together.

Price of Wisdom
The more you understand in life, the more pain and difficulty you'll experience. the more you know, the more imperfection will be apparent. The more you observe, the more evident evil will be to you. When you set out to find the meaning of life, you must be ready to feel more, think more, question more, hurt more --- and do more. Are you ready to pay the price of wisdom?

Human Purpose
The eternity and finality of human death makes all our human achievements futile. But God has a plan for each of us individually that goes well beyond human life and death. And we were wired for that plan. Nothing in the world can satisfy the emptiness and the longings that are in our restless hearts. True happiness and internal peace or contentment are not in our power to attain in life - and nothing in this world can give those things to us either. They only come from living out God's purpose for each of us.
