Then we violate what we are appointed to do, defeating our very own purpose &amp; destroying our divine will. This is not love. Not according to my understanding but as it is written. How much more so can we as disciples &amp; genuine children of God be pleasing in His eyes? It is our testimony in weakness, humility &amp; conviction that (through nature &amp; miracles) &#8220;He Himself,&#8221; &amp; (through grace transcended to us) &#8220;His Love,&#8221; is revealed but to each man, woman &amp; child that the secrets of ones heart posesses; Lord only knows.
