Is
There Really A God Out There?
This subject title could go many
directions, however I would like it to stay on a plain down to earth
setting, because that is basically how I live. If I never believed that
God existed, I could join the atheists of our world and say, "Of Course He Isn't Out There."
but I have been a believer far too long to join the unbelieving throng of
people who have nothing better to do.
When things are going strong, we are
prospering in health and finances, our emotions are high and running away with
us, we'll always be the first to say that we know God is out there. The world
says that the reason we have success is because we did something to make it
happen. Of course I know that we did something. It wouldn't have been done
otherwise, but I am not a stupid person either. I know that we are human, and
inspiration and desire to succeed, or press on to the finish, didn't just come
out of no where the desire to reach the goal was instilled in our mind at a
time when we least expected it. So where did this all derive from? God of course.
When we write a resume, which has to be
impressive enough to land a job, and no one is impressed, and everywhere we go,
we are rejected - Whom do we go to? Human nature says that we tear up our
efforts, pout and swear, stomp our feet and say, "Nobody Cares about
When we are sick and the medical
profession can't give us the answer we want, we again say "No one cares about me, so I guess I will just lay down and wait
to die”. To all of this I ask, Did We
Ask God? And then when we asked, Did We Truly Believe something good would
happen, or did we maintain the attitude, "Well,
God never did anything for me before, Why should I expect Him to do anything
now."
I say to you, all of You: "Hogwash!" When we really evaluate our years of Living
for God, The fact that He saved us. US, Friends, That's a biggy.
Saved us from having to look forward to Hell. Someone says. “I am living Hell on Earth."
I say, God is out there. Do an about face
and get close to Him. He proves everyday that He is there, ready to
be of help.
Our problem is that we can’t see the
Draw
Nigh unto Him, and He will draw nigh unto thee.
Through it all, I've learned to trust in
Blessings on You,
