Each of us, as God’s sons and daughters, has been endowed with the spiritual sense to discern and value freedom. This kind of liberty means being free from all the claims of material existence and its so-called laws, including freedom from sin, disease, and, ultimately, death.

The physical law that a bullet traveling at great speed will not stop without a solid object to stop it, was nullified. I experienced the safety that flows from a spiritual understanding of God and man, and this safety is available to all of us.

Fatherhood need not be a mental tug of war between Dad and the kids. The solution I've found is to stop pushing and instead to yield to the heavenly Father through humble prayer.

The words “deep melancholia” persistently knocked at the door of my thought after my wife filed for divorce and full custody. I realized that God was my only hope for breaking out of what seemed a hopeless situation
