==Hardened Hearts==
Often times there are those who harden their hearts against you for whatever reason, and I say to you that even the hardest rock dissolves gradually to a steady stream of life-giving water. Be diligent in your kindness. Continue to show love for all manner of evil done to you. Show only kindness, love and understanding and that rock, will in fact, dissolve. - [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=2001-03-08-Ending_Friendships,_Drugs#Friendship Ham]

==Vicissitudes==
With human eyes you look upon a person who has had their home destroyed by a tornado, and a person who has just won the lottery. The one being seems terribly unlucky, the other terribly lucky. That's the human perspective, but God sees things differently for he sees the person who has lost everything as one better prepared for the next life. One who is learning that all things earthly evaporate and you cannot put your faith and trust in things of this world. He sees the one who has won the lottery as being unlucky, for having gained unearned ease; that person actually is having a setback spiritually and will have to have many hard lessons to make up for it.
Life is full of ups and downs - disasters and triumphs. Both are equally unreal. The only reality is spiritual growth - nothing else really matters. - [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=2001-03-22-Discerning_Truth#Stress.2C_Growth Ham]
