[QUOTE="Beta, post: 766013, member: 22597"] Copa, I believe that it's true--apart from God's intervention in their lives, or in anyone's life, there will be no real transformation. We can grit our teeth and buck ourselves up, but we can only change the surface. God has to change the core of our being. Anyway, as I was reading your post, this verse came to mind about God, describing God as "the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our afflictions, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God." He's also described as "the God of hope" and the One who can fill us with joy and peace by His power. I agree, we can fill our places of despair with His love and grace. I'm thankful for that. He does not abandon us in our pain. [/QUOTE]
