Luke Timothy Johnson called the church “a messy grace.” The same might be said of marriage—and of all relationships, to varying extents.
This is why love, specifically the divine love known as agapē, is so vital to any successful relationship, especially marriage. Without it, and without intentionality over time, all relationships eventually succumb to entropy and mediocrity.

Your actual existence is based upon what you said, or do; not on what is popular or trending!
Why?
Most people tend to follow rather than spend much time attempting to find the real story of events. Your life is and will be based upon how and why you did whatever you did! Not on whatever anyone else accomplished or did! That is a hard cold fact of truth!
Your reason for existence here in this human body is to learn how to become a real friend and love and help those who were placed upon your pathway! This is contrary to exactly what most people do in their lives. They just look ou ... read more “We killed Davy Crockett.” 3 y

There’s nothing like a beautiful sunny day, but it can end in itchy pain if you’re not careful. Using sunscreen and knowing when the sun is harshest can help with that. The UV Index makes that easier to understand.
What Is the UV Index?
The “Ultraviolet Index”—a.k.a. UV Index—is the standard of measurement for ultraviolet (UV) radiation. People don’t think of the sun as giving off radiation, but that’s exactly what’s happening. UV radiation is what burns your skin.

John 7:15 ’And the Jews marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned?’
JOHN 7:14-15
Jesus received His wisdom and knowledge by direct revelation from the Spirit of God rather than by the teachings of man. Jesus had been learning, but not through man. The Holy Ghost was His teacher.
Jesus had to be taught the things of God. This looks contrary to Colossians 2:3, which says that all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge are hidden in Jesus. If Jesus was God manifest in the flesh, why would He have to learn or be taught?
