So there are many people who often ask the question, "How do I know if there is REALLY a God? I mean, I can't see him, so why should I believe He is real?" A lot of people claim to not believe just because they don't see with their eyes or feel with their hands. They don't believe because they have no faith. Some believe that life is just something that occupies us, some believe that life is only a dream. Not believing in God is like saying, "I don't believe in air. I don't see it so why believe there is air?" Yes,we all know that we can't see air but we know there is air. Why? Because we breathe it in (God said in Genesis 2:7, "God breathed the breath of life into man, and he became a living, breathing being.") We see the affects of air. When there is wind, you can see when the air blows through the trees, knocking some leaves off the trees or sometimes worse. It can knock down a tree depending on how strong the wind blows. So when you see wind blowing through the trees, you know air is present. God is omnipresent which means 'being present everywhere at once.' You need to believe in order to see. Asking whether or not God exists is what I even asked as a Christian sometimes. I seem to have only asked that question when things never went my own way but God answers prayers. You can't just pray and have no faith, or else your prayers won't be answered. What I've learned is that we cannot just pray and expect an answer then and there, we must be patient and be humble and God will answer in His own perfect timing.

I finally got through to
I finally got through to myself and realized that I was wrong for doubting. I do still have my times of fear when I feel that God "isn't listening" even though I know He is, just like any other human. I have my moments of wondering but now I'll just pick up the Bible and start reading more to grow in my knowledge and wisdom.
Thanks for posting! :D
