On Love, Truth, And G-d

In my ongoing quest to understand how Jesus is the truth and why being right is not more important than love and why those do not contradict each other- I have undergone a lot of changes. Lucky for me the Lord honours those who seek Him diligently because I have not known quite how I should go about the whole thing. I have tried things that ended up not working and seriously damaging relationships I had and I have changed the frame of the whole discussion on more than one occasion. I am impressed by how much some people can give of themselves out of love. I am also impressed with the horrendous effects that abandoning truth has had on my brothers and sisters here in the United States.

Seasons come and go and we learn things that we did not expect to ever learn- even things we wanted to. What is the connection between G-d, Truth, and Love? Why is it true that one is more important than another, but that statement is either true or false and if you believe falsely you won't see that the one is greater than the other?

And all the while as I fight with myself and tear myself to pieces losing and winning battles that take me to places I never thought I would go- I somehow find my love for G-d rekindled in a way that is amazing.

I love my Church. I love my people. Oh yeah, it's not really my Church.
