+ | God has a different idea of strong and weak. He has a different understanding of who is good | ||
+ | and who is not as good. It is not strength, performance, | ||

+ | God will rescue his flock. Please, consider the idea about the world which is reflected in these lines. | ||
+ | It is about an eternal God and father, who cares about individual people. He cares about those, who | ||
+ | belong to him. They belong to him by faith, their heart is his. It is not strength, or power, or | ||
+ | any ability to destroy others. His victory is different. | ||
+ | Am I enought? Yes, I am enough, since he loves me, he made me, he wants me. Nothing else is needed. | ||
+ | The foundation of life is not strength, not natural selection, but love. Some evolutionary biologists | ||
+ | try to explain love as a simple tool of evolution. But if this would be true, it would mean that | ||
+ | love would be stronger than any other force or strength. And it is! Love will lead to justice, to | ||
+ | support, to help, to prosperity. | ||
+ | Am I enough? I think you have a friend, an eternal friend and helper. It is the Lord. He wants you. | ||
+ | He is waiting for you. Perhaps you know him already. Perhaps you do not know him yet. But in any case, | ||
+ | you have an eternal friend - what would be better to know? Yes, you are enough just as you are, since | ||
+ | you are enough for him, for your saviour and friend! | ||
