Thanks for all the answers. Personally, I think there are possibilities that God cannot actualize. For instance, can God make square circles or can God change the past, undoing what has been done. Such feats do not seem logically possible and they appear to be metaphysically impossible as well. But maybe I am mistaken.

No. That would not be really good for human kind. We need to go thru bad stuff so we can learn and grow. Sometimes it looks like the butterfly is really struggling to get out of its cocoon but you have to allow it to struggle. If you take a knife and cut the cocoon open the butterfly dies because it wont be able to fly. In the process of struggling from its captivity (i.e. cocoon) it forces fluid into the wing structure and make them strong to fly. Lesson? No pain... No Gain. It is the way of things.

I have a bipolar child who is ptsd, adhd, and odd. He witnessed his bipolar dad shoot himself in the head. His dad almost drove me insane, and there are times that I feel close to the brink of becoming crazy insane from what this boy, my son, puts me through. I pray and cry in heaving breaths, and suddenly i have an hour or day or if I am really lucky, even two full days of peace. It never lasts long, and my only guess is because God wants to remind me to pray. The more I pray, the more peaceful life is. If I get busy with work or a human endeavor, I am once again punished by the antics of my bipolar child. The thing is I can only imagine what he is going through. I try not to be selfish and think what anxiety he is facing. I try to help him to pray, but he is having a difficult time focusing and I can only imagine what demon is holding on to him and for what reason. I only wish I knew how to get it out without doctors, with only God, and if there is such a possibility. So far, my heart has not broken and I am told I am very strong. But, I wonder how strong I am if I am always fighting for more strength.

maximum of humanity can't study someone's heart. Christians who've the present of discernment of spirits can study a individual's spirit despite the fact that if or no longer they're of God or no longer and Scripture tells us that comes out of someone's mouth is a competent indicator, partly, of what's interior the middle yet we do not know thoroughly via fact there is in lots of cases lots greater hidden interior the middle than shall we ever wish to make certain, God on my own has that skill. specific, human nature does concentration customarily upon the actual visual attraction. someone's character and character is all too in lots of cases judged on their visual attraction. Do i've got faith it extremely is incorrect? specific I do if that's the only approach people adhere to whilst judging somebody. The old asserting---" you are able to no longer decide a e book by way of it extremely is conceal" applies right here.

Any and everything is possible with God. One day soon mankind will be brought back to the perfect condition he was originally created for. At that point humans hearts will be unbreakable. There will not be anything to cause these ones harm. The earth will be paradise.

Not logical, as then this human would not feel any of the moments (emotions) of his/her life.
Examples such as the birth of their children, the death of their children, etc.
Emotions are part of being human and GOD gifted us with them for a reason.
But - for a purely can GOD do it - yes or no type answer: well of course GOD can.

It's possible for God to do anything, because He's God. He doesn't make us face things that we can't handle. It's hard to believe, but just keep praying!

of course it is because God is able to do anything and everything - however though our hearts may break God never gives us more to deal with than what we can handle - and everything we have to deal with is just part of His perfect plan for each and everyone of us and if you have a personal relationship with him through scripture and prayer He will guide you more and more each day toward what plan He has for you

I think he had to choose between making unbreakable hearts, and human hearts.
If humans had unbreakable hearts, we wouldn't be human anymore.

If humans can... I don't see any reason why an omnipotent being wouldn't...
