It's been said that Love hurts, I would say that's an understatement. Love does hurt, but it also rewards, renews, rejuvenates, and grows. Love is a gift given to us by God. He has allowed us to be able to feel love and every other emotion associated with it; love, hate, anger, envy, jealousy, forgiveness, desire and lust. Wait a minute, hate, anger, envy, jealousy, and lust? Those aren't good things you might say. Why would God allow us to feel that? Simple put, God is Love. A life without God is a life without Love. To be absent from Love is to be absent from God and thus is Hell. God does not reside in Hell so by default if you are living in the absence of God you are living in Hell, a place void of Love. By being able to see and feel the absence of God here on Earth, if one chooses, gives you a glimpse into what an eternity without God might be like. It would not be fun, actually it would be Hell. Maybe God allows us to feel the bad emotions so that we get a glimpse of what Hell might be like.. As humans we have the choice of life with God or not. Some will say it is Satan that causes those bad emotions. I disagree with those opinions. Satan is only as powerful as you allow him to be and I for one choose not to give him that much power. He does however make attempts to gain a foothold from time to time. In those times I try to laugh and say 'I don't think so fella, go back from where you came'.
