Seeing is Believing...

This weekend, I was talking with a good friend, which for me does not believe completely in God, at least in the same way I do.  He has a weird (to use a word) to believe in God that makes me wonder how he can believe in the same God if he do not believe in the Bible, don’t like to go to church, and do not talk much about God. How is possible for somebody believe in God if they do not go to any kind of church, if they do not read any book about God? How this people can create an image of God and believe in Him without know Him?

I ask him if He have any idea of what God wants from him, and he did not answer clearly for me, but he said something wise. He said that God do not force him to do anything. That is true we have the free will to choose to do what ever we want. I read something that I like very much “God’s will for me is that which is best for me; yet God does not force anything upon me. Patiently God waits for me to be still, to turn within and listen.”

God is amazing and the more I learn of Him, the more I want to know about Him. I understand my good friend, nobody have the absolute truth, that nobody, know with certainty the existence of God, but when you feel His presence, when you hear in your heart that He is talking to you, when you see everyday miracles (big or small), when a group of people get together in His name and you can feel His presence in the middle, that have to mean something. If He is true or not I might do not have the palpable evidence, but my guts is telling me that He is real and that make me feel happy and secure in this life on earth.

 Jeremiah 9:23-24

²³ Thus said the Lord: “Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might; let not the rich man glory in his riches.

²⁴ But let him that gloried glory in this: that he understand and know Me, that I am the Lord who exercise loving-kindness, judgment, and righteousness in the earth; for in these things I delight,” said the Lord.
