Even mystics have admitted that the search for God is a long, disappointing one & that they've felt they were groping in the dark

And it’s true, sometimes it seems as if you are struggling in the void, but that’s only how it seems, and you shouldn’t become discouraged. I’ll give you an example. A man digs a well so he can have water to quench his thirst. He doesn’t know how deep he will have to dig to find it, and this uncertainty could leave him discouraged. But he has an image, a likeness, of this water in his head, heart and soul. He lives with the idea, the thought, the hope, of obtaining this water, and even if the water is not yet flowing from a physical spring, at least it is flowing within him. In the same way, those who look for God may seem to find nothing, and yet they are working with a very powerful reality that lives inside them. They can say to themselves, ‘I’ve not really found God yet, of course, but he’s manifesting through my thoughts, feelings and wishes.’ And this hope, this faith is, in itself, God."

God walks with me every way and directs my paths. God is very present in my life and I see him and thank him everyday.

For example: If you don't believe in God, say: God- I do Not believe that You exist. But if you do truly exist, please show Yourself to me... If you think that there might be a God, but you're not sure, pray/say: I think that there might be a God, but I'm not sure. God, if You exist, then please show me that you are there - so that I know For Sure. If you believe in God, but not in Jesus, say: God- I believe that You exist.... Show me the Way to You. I want to get to know You better. If you believe in God and Jesus, pray/say: Jesus, please get my heart ready... so when you come back, I am ready for You. And no... saying: Oh God help me, Oh God help me - 100x out of desperation is not the same thing.... Specific requests / words will prompt specific responses. Good Luck Op.

I never forgive and I never forget I am a licensed firearm holder. I will, under protection of law, use lethal force if attacked.
