| The Arcade Fire just might be the greatest band in the world. Opinions on the matter are welcome though... |

| We're all faced throughout our lives with agonizing decisions, moral choices. Some are on a grand scale, most of these choices are on lesser points. But we define ourselves by the choices we have made. We are, in fact, the sum total of our choices. Events unfold so unpredictably, so unfairly, Human happiness does not seem to be included in the design of creation. it is only we, with our capacity to love that give meaning to the indifferent universe. And yet, most human beings seem to have the ability to keep trying and even try to find joy from simple things, like their family, their work, and from the hope that future generations might understand more.
Any thoughts? |

| Lamentations 3:25-33
The blows you recieve come from the God who loves you; humbly accept his discipline.
Two undeniable truths: -God loves you and works all things together for good. -Suffering exists.
Conclusion #1: Suffering must be good.
Conclusion #2: Wait humbly for the salvation of the Lord
Conclusion #3: Put yourself in a position to receive his discipline.
Our Hope: Suffering will not last; God will show compassion.
