Yes, I am not here to tell you I know the answer to your struggles, your questions, your prayers. I never was. All I am here to do is to tell you about the One who loves you and knows you, though I may not. He knows the answers. He IS the answer.
Seek not to grow in knowledge chiefly for the sake of applause, and to enable you to dispute with others; but seek it for the benefit of your souls.
My argument against God was that the universe seemed so cruel and unjust. But how had I got this idea of just and unjust? A man does not call a line crooked unless he has some idea of a straight line. What was I comparing this unvierse with when I called it unjust?
In the last couple of years, three years actually, the anti-trafficking police, NGO’s - three NGO’s have worked in Svay Pak [Cambodia], have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars and have rescued one girl. You know, people say, “Education. If we just educate them, if we just get them good jobs, if we do developments…” Well, hell, millions of dollars have been spent on both and the situation continues to get worse. I mean, what proof do we need? Has education and development solved evil in the West? I mean, what has that done? Nothing. We have all the evidence in the world that education and money does not get rid of evil. It isn’t a money and education issue. It’s a moral; it’s a spiritual issue.
