Now, you and me are much alike, G/T. One does not have to prove God is real to me. I am going to be an old man soon, despite my denial in that area (lol), likewise, my beliefs are simply not going to be changed, in spite of tragedy in my life that is unspeakable ~ I have witnessed the Holy Spirit at work in my life. This happened because I said in my heart, "Jesus, if you are real, come into my life"!...That's it! Nothing else! He will!

The problem we have with God, as human beings - if we will be totally honest with ourselves - is that we don't want to give up the sins in our lives. We all come short of pleasing God with our own works, therefore, provision of salvation, Jesus Christ, is Gods' mercy, love and grace.

I will never attempt to prove God is real to any of you, because if God is God, He can work in your heart for himself, He shouldnâ??t need selfish, pathetic, futile ME to make His case, right? Give it a try, please, G/T. You will see a change. Just TRY it!
hey, i respect that man.. i'd just like to say, though, that i have 'given it a try'.. i was raised in a religious family (jehovahs witnesses), and now that ive matured some, ive read their texts, studied their beliefs, and questioned their rules, all with an open mind.. and its made me go from believing to not believing.. but hey, like i said in the 'life of a geek' thread by meek mike, as long as we respect eachothers beliefs, and get high, then it doesnt matter what we believe, coz its still all good.. i dunno, im drunk
GHoSToKeR Reviewed by GHoSToKeR on . For those of u that believe I really need all of ur thoughts and prayers right now. I should say my sister and her new baby do. He was bornin earlier today but hes not due until the first of march. Hes very small and shes not doin to well either. She had gestational Diabetes and with that the babies lungs develope at a slower rate then normal. He is on all kinds of machines. They said that there is a 50/50 chance for him. I dont accept that i belive there is a 100% chance atleast thats what im praying for. I know that Rating: 5
