He runs his mouth all the time. Nobody was blaming him for anything. For him to come back at me was a personal attack.

Never love someone whom you think you need to mend – or who makes you feel like you should be mended.

God made us: invented us as a man invents an engine. A car is made to run on petrol, and it would not run properly on anything else. Now God designed the human machine to run on Himself. He Himself is the fuel our spirits were designed to burn, or the food our spirits were designed to feed on. There is no other. That is why it is just no good asking God to make us happy in our own way without bothering about religion. God cannot give us a happiness and peace apart from Himself, because it is not there.
