I was waiting for an explanation of "no matter what it looks like (on the news, in the world, in her own painful experiences) everything that comes from God comes from love".

The explanation did not come.  What was the assurance she says God gave her that things are not as they seem?

Neither did she give an explanation of what it is she now understands she has to repent for.

What is the message of this video?

i would really love to know how she somehow is able to believe and be convinced that God is love (apart from saying because the bible says so), and overcome the image of an angry, wrathful God which would naturally result in a reaction to be horrified, anxious or disbelief. sincere question here.

I've been wheel chair bound for my whole life. I'm congenitally blind, mute and I have no limbs. And if that wasn't enough, I have spina bifida and bad breath. I was scratching my head as to what purpose there could be for me in this life: maybe ground up to make cat food or fishing chum; or I could be the sex doll of some sexually depraved individual or consortium. I'm not really feeling the love.

Christy you are right, weather you're an actor or just a person in need of reasurance. God is love. But God is also you and me and everyone.
There is nothing to repent for, because you have only sinned or done wrong if you say and believe that. All what you may have gone through in life has been brought on by yourself. By your concious and unconcious thoughts. All the news is created by us, it is the world conciousness which ceeates the news. And the so call bad news is the conciousness of God will take care of it, so i dont need to; or i will be going somewhere else, namely heaven. There is no heaven unless you create here in you world conciousness.
You are great, you are powerfull, know that live that and all the so call bad things disappear.

I can't see a god that directed that children be beaten for discipline is loving. Why should I think that about an all powerful, all knowing being that thinks child abuse is good discipline?
