Re: Is there a reason that I can't find god.
maybe because there ain't no God?
 Quoting: there ain't no God


I can see how that might give you comfort. But you are wrong. He's very alive and would love for you to look past what is going on and see reality.

I would be happy to answer any questions or insults that follow.
 Quoting: Borian


no. except that i am quite content to be without anything like a "God".
 Quoting: there ain't no God


Then that's what it is. You are content without God, he is content that you chose what to do with your life. I know you don't remember, but you asked for this life and missed. Good luck to you. He would still love to see you come home. I know you will mock it, but bless you, and hope you get everything that you should.

/Jesus really does miss you.

"God" is nothing but a three letter word used by humans to explain the unexplainable. That's all it is

Can you prove me wrong?

yes, explain love.

Re: Is there a reason that I can't find god.
If God did not exist we would find it necessary to invent Him.

~ Voltaire

For you see, in the end, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.

~Mother Teresa

God and Nature first made us what we are, and then out of our own created genius we make ourselves what we want to be. Follow always that great law. Let the sky and God be our limit and Eternity our measurement.

~ Marcus Garvey


It is not because angels are holier than men or devils that makes them angels, but because they do not expect holiness from one another, but from God alone.

~ William Blake


Prayer is not the synonym of petition- prayer is speaking to God whatsoever be the voice, the language, the subject of disclosure. It may be confession, it may be adoration, it may be thanksgiving, it may be petition. If it be petition it may be entreaty, it may be deprecation, it may be intercession, it may be for the life, it may be for the soul... prayer is the soul's language in the ear of God known to be present. A man may pray who asks nothing; who "dwells in the secret place of the Most High" -- silent petition, counting it enough to abide under the shadow of the Almighty, the All-Loving. The reality of prayer is the meeting of the two spirits, the "I" and the "I Am" unto communication, unto converse, unto interchange ( with reverence be it spoken) of thought and speech of life and love.

~ Very Rev. C.J. Vaughan, D. D.

Prayer is the meeting-point of the seen and the unseen; it is borderland between earth and heaven; it is the contact and the communion of finite beings with the Infinite"

~ Dr. Huntindon

Prayer, if I may speak so boldly, is intercourse with God. Even if we do but lisp, even though we silently address God without opening our lips, yet we cry to Him in the innermost recsses of the heart; for God always listens to the sincere direction of the heart to Him

~ Clement of Alexandria

Prayer is helplessness casting itself upon power; it is infirmity leaning on strength, and misery wooing bliss; it is unholiness embracing purity, hatred desiring love; it is corruption panting for immortality, and the earth born claiming kindred in the skies; it is the flight of the soul to the bosom of God, and the spirit soring upward and claiming nativity beyond the stars; it is the restless dove on drooping wing turning to its loved repose; it isthe soaring eagle mounting upward in its flight, and with steady gaze pursuing the track till lost to all below; it is the roving wanderer looking toward abiding-place, where all his treasures; it is the prisoner pleading for release; it is the mariner on a dangerous sea upon the reeling topmast, descrying the broad and quiet haven of repose; it is the soul oppressed by earthly soarings, escaping to a broader and purer sphere, and bathing its plumes in the ethereal and eternal.

~ Thorthon Wells



They tell us that this man of Galilee was the very eternal God clothed in flesh of man that men might see his glory.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 24552770


Nope. It's not something that can be put on paper and filed so you can put it in your "I might look again" file.

It is something inside. If you really don't believe then that is your choice. Please understand what a finite choice it is.

I have no urge to prove it wrong or right. I know it exists. My only hope is you dont roll your eyes at this and move on.

Something drove you to reply here. Ask whatever drove you to explain my reply.

Re: Is there a reason that I can't find god.
Because you need to be insane to start talking to imaginary people.... I suppose you can, but as long as you don't start getting answers. Because then people will think you're nuts. And they'd be right.
 Quoting: Von_Boner 320079


The one I'm talking to thinks you are full of shit and afraid you might get what you are asking for. It's not gonna help, just going to dig the pit a bit deeper.

My imaginary person said you used to understand, but have been sidetracked by crap that doesn't matter.
 Quoting: Borian

To face God would mean death.

Hey, I talk to people, its not my fault if there not here.


Most people are mineral deficient, polluted by the air, false religeon, garbage you hear and see and eat, detox your body, get yourself a frequency generator, You still have all the working parts. You can resonate vitamins and minerals, cure yourself from depression,any disease, ect. there are frequencies for spirtuality, christ conciousness, pineal gland(divine spirit)this should help you find the happyness you seek. more and more people are catching on to this, finaly the fda has approved these to be sold as Tens stimulators.
Try fasting for a while, drink gallons if filtered water.
I know I dont have to look far to find god, hes here everyday.

Re: Is there a reason that I can't find god.
YES GLP IT'S A GOD TOPIC AND MAYBE DEPRESSIVE TOO

I use to believe in God, I once believed there existed a place of permanent peace and happyness where all the loved ones I lost ones I have yet to lose (unless ofcourse I'm next in line to die) but something happened to me while I was young which killed my faith. I just was able to see a wholer picture and I saw how much sadness there was on Gods green earth. I saw the suffering, the hate, the blood, and the pain shared by humanity. I would ask God, and would ask Jesus for answers but not once in my entire life have never I felt either power answer back.

Now I am older and I have a more complete understanding, and I still suffer terrible depression, extreme anxiety which comes from no where. If Jesus is there I much desire his love, but it has never reached me even when I really put my "soul" into seeking some kind of divine guidance. If God and Jesus is real I feel terrible for every awful thought and curse I have put to his name, terrible... But why can't I have a true religious experiance, why did God create me in a way where it would be so difficult to accept his love?

There are also many religions in this world and the one you become apart of seems to be very dependent on how your parents raise you or what location of the earth you are born on.

Do I pray to Allah, God , Jesus , Pikachu , Buddah , Reptillian Alien God, Spaggetti Monster, who? Could God have not made this clearer for me to understand? Was it so nessecary to make it a game that pits us all against each other?

Please, so many people claim that God is with them, that Jesus is with them, that God can answer them, yet I receive nothing. In all my life I have had but 2 experiances with a being that may even be considered GOD and that was while I was on a psycidellic drug in which god came to me in a very very angry sort of way.

Why won't god come to me when I'm not on drugs, when I'm at my lowest point in life, begging for his presence, wanting his love, wanting to get to know this Jesus that I've heard so much about.

Why did god put me on the path that I am on, why? If god is real then I must be on the path to hell because I've never felt further from him. All I ask of GLP, if you talk to GOD. Please ask him or Jesus to drop by, help me get my life to a point where I can be happy, I want to work with out anxieties , I want to love and be the best I can, but there is so much poison infecting my mind I can not feel his power, I can not hear his voice.

God where are you.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 21257388



You can't "find" God because you have been amethatized from the Catholic church. Get baptized in the name of Our Lady,Christ and the Holy Ghost and you will be Catholic and pray the 150 original rosary Our Lady gave us. You will find out very quickly that God is Our Lady,Christ and the Holy Ghost. What's in a name? Everything. Make sure you call God by God's name: OUr Lady,Christ our maker and the Holy Ghost. If you want to know what they look like look up the trinity revealed to St Lucia in Tuy Spain.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 21257388


God is there but your desire and love for him have to be real. It can be be only when needed or convenience that yur faith be genuine.

God likes praise. He wants to be worshipped for his greatness.

Are you reading his word and have you connected to a christian worship.

Find a place you like where you are comfortable with the message and its fellowship.

When you reach out aand listen and it is true desire and love, he will come and your life will change beyond belief.
It starts gradual, but if you are committed, you will achieve great results.

You must be willing to make huge sacrifices depending on your lifestyle on this earth. He will try to teach you to be not of this earth and living a godly life.

When you are ready, get baptized as an adult. Child baptism is really only a dedication to god as the child cannot make up his own mind to commit himself to god so it is understood. As an adult you are expected by god to get baptized at your own free will and choice just as Jesus did. At this time of baptism, you must be ready to ask forgiveneess from god for all of your sins and you must forgive yourself and all those who have sinned against you. Your heart must be full of love and your soul will be cleansed by god. You will be a new person and your life will change if you are committed.

Read the bible in its entirity. I read King James verssion and it was a very hard read. I now use the New Living Translation or New King James for better clarity.
You will be surprised at its relevance in current times.

Try it. I guarantee things will be good again. I have so many that can share similar stories with you and thier lives have changed drstically.

It sounds like God has dangled the carrot in front of you for you to bite into but you have failed to do so. He can't help you if you don't help yourself. Take a big gulp of courage,step out and try,others will reach out to you, open your mind and be willing to accept thier reaching out and a brand new begining in life bringing you all the love, peace,happiness and comfort the lord has in store for you. If you are willing, open and honest with him and yourself, there will be nothing but great things happening in your future relationship with him.

I was where you were one year ago today. I followed my own advice and my life is so much better now. Everyone sees the change. My depression is almost non existant and my life has true meaning now.

When I was baptized, I was told things would happen to me - strange things or different things. I disregarded those comments. I was walking my dog one afternoon and an old hymn kept playing over and over in my head and to my amazment I knew every word. My new church plays modern music and I like it. I had not been to my old church in twenty years and had not sang in the choir so there would be no way for me to know the words without god's intervention. Now I wake in the morning with some christian music in my head even though I still listen to regular radio. Trust me things happen- your stress is eased, your depression lessens, you gain confidence.

You have nothing to lose and everything to gain by accepting Jesus as your Lord and Saviour.

There are also many religions in this world and the one you become apart of seems to be very dependent on how your parents raise you or what location of the earth you are born on.

Do I pray to Allah, God , Jesus , Pikachu , Buddah , Reptillian Alien God, Spaggetti Monster, who? Could God have not made this clearer for me to understand? Was it so nessecary to make it a game that pits us all against each other?

Please, so many people claim that God is with them, that Jesus is with them, that God can answer them, yet I receive nothing. In all my life I have had but 2 experiances with a being that may even be considered GOD and that was while I was on a psycidellic drug in which god came to me in a very very angry sort of way.

Why won't god come to me when I'm not on drugs, when I'm at my lowest point in life, begging for his presence, wanting his love, wanting to get to know this Jesus that I've heard so much about.

Why did god put me on the path that I am on, why? If god is real then I must be on the path to hell because I've never felt further from him. All I ask of GLP, if you talk to GOD. Please ask him or Jesus to drop by, help me get my life to a point where I can be happy, I want to work with out anxieties , I want to love and be the best I can, but there is so much poison infecting my mind I can not feel his power, I can not hear his voice.

God where are you.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 21257388


God is there but your desire and love for him have to be real. It can be be only when needed or convenience that yur faith be genuine.

God likes praise. He wants to be worshipped for his greatness.

Are you reading his word and have you connected to a christian worship.

Find a place you like where you are comfortable with the message and its fellowship.

When you reach out aand listen and it is true desire and love, he will come and your life will change beyond belief.
It starts gradual, but if you are committed, you will achieve great results.

You must be willing to make huge sacrifices depending on your lifestyle on this earth. He will try to teach you to be not of this earth and living a godly life.

When you are ready, get baptized as an adult. Child baptism is really only a dedication to god as the child cannot make up his own mind to commit himself to god so it is understood. As an adult you are expected by god to get baptized at your own free will and choice just as Jesus did. At this time of baptism, you must be ready to ask forgiveneess from god for all of your sins and you must forgive yourself and all those who have sinned against you. Your heart must be full of love and your soul will be cleansed by god. You will be a new person and your life will change if you are committed.

Read the bible in its entirity. I read King James verssion and it was a very hard read. I now use the New Living Translation or New King James for better clarity.
You will be surprised at its relevance in current times.

Try it. I guarantee things will be good again. I have so many that can share similar stories with you and thier lives have changed drstically.

It sounds like God has dangled the carrot in front of you for you to bite into but you have failed to do so. He can't help you if you don't help yourself. Take a big gulp of courage,step out and try,others will reach out to you, open your mind and be willing to accept thier reaching out and a brand new begining in life bringing you all the love, peace,happiness and comfort the lord has in store for you. If you are willing, open and honest with him and yourself, there will be nothing but great things happening in your future relationship with him.

I was where you were one year ago today. I followed my own advice and my life is so much better now. Everyone sees the change. My depression is almost non existant and my life has true meaning now.

When I was baptized, I was told things would happen to me - strange things or different things. I disregarded those comments. I was walking my dog one afternoon and an old hymn kept playing over and over in my head and to my amazment I knew every word. My new church plays modern music and I like it. I had not been to my old church in twenty years and had not sang in the choir so there would be no way for me to know the words without god's intervention. Now I wake in the morning with some christian music in my head even though I still listen to regular radio. Trust me things happen- your stress is eased, your depression lessens, you gain confidence.

You have nothing to lose and everything to gain by accepting Jesus as your Lord and Saviour.

You are confusing the Lord with God. The Lord is one entity and God is another. The Lord is satan. When you come face to face with Christ when you die truly consider calling him God when he asks you " who do you say that I am?"

May this thread represent my prayer to him then, I ask not for riches, not for luck , or respect , talent , unearned ability a hug or love. I guess peace of mind, hell I'd settle for a handshake.

Thanks for the responses, I don't think today is the day I truly find god and I may not find ever what I ask. If there are those who truely believe that god is with them send a prayer on my behalf. I hope god knows who I truely am, what I wanted to be in the end.

Please god have mercy, I have tried, and yet so it seems I may have failed you, but my intentions where always ment for the better.

Peace
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 21257388


OP if you are sincere... and I sure hope you are (cause I've seen many similar posts like yours on here who are just peeps "stirring the pot" for fun)... please take note:

"Draw close to God, and he will draw close to you." (James 4:8)

"For all hearts Jehovah is searching, and every inclination of the thoughts he is discerning. If you search for him, he will let himself be found by you"
(1 Chronicles 28:9)

These words are both an invitation and a promise.

But how exactly does one do that since God is a spirit (invisible)?

He has provided us with his word the Bible... read it daily to start your wonderful journey and in doing so you will be "happy". "Happy is the man... [whose] delight is in the law of Jehovah, And in his law he reads in an undertone day and night" (Psalm 1:1,2)

Also, pray. Pray with sincerity of heart... ask that He help you to get to know Him and that you get to understand His will... even if it means you having to tear down preconceived conclusions. There is nothing more precious to our Creator than for somebody to fully open their heart to Him.

 Quoting: Borian



look in the mirror honey. God has placed Himself inside of you. He is waiting for you to remember your source and that you have already been redeemed. When you do that, you will release God to operate fully in you and out of you. peace will envelop you as he abides in you fully. Jesus left here bodily so that He could return in the form of His Spirit inside of our spirit. Just surrender yourself, thats all. He doesn't have to come in, He's already in you, just let Him come up from within. He will love through you.

Re: Is there a reason that I can't find god.
YES GLP IT'S A GOD TOPIC AND MAYBE DEPRESSIVE TOO

I use to believe in God, I once believed there existed a place of permanent peace and happyness where all the loved ones I lost ones I have yet to lose (unless ofcourse I'm next in line to die) but something happened to me while I was young which killed my faith. I just was able to see a wholer picture and I saw how much sadness there was on Gods green earth. I saw the suffering, the hate, the blood, and the pain shared by humanity. I would ask God, and would ask Jesus for answers but not once in my entire life have never I felt either power answer back.

Now I am older and I have a more complete understanding, and I still suffer terrible depression, extreme anxiety which comes from no where. If Jesus is there I much desire his love, but it has never reached me even when I really put my "soul" into seeking some kind of divine guidance. If God and Jesus is real I feel terrible for every awful thought and curse I have put to his name, terrible... But why can't I have a true religious experiance, why did God create me in a way where it would be so difficult to accept his love?

There are also many religions in this world and the one you become apart of seems to be very dependent on how your parents raise you or what location of the earth you are born on.

Do I pray to Allah, God , Jesus , Pikachu , Buddah , Reptillian Alien God, Spaggetti Monster, who? Could God have not made this clearer for me to understand? Was it so nessecary to make it a game that pits us all against each other?

Please, so many people claim that God is with them, that Jesus is with them, that God can answer them, yet I receive nothing. In all my life I have had but 2 experiances with a being that may even be considered GOD and that was while I was on a psycidellic drug in which god came to me in a very very angry sort of way.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 21257388

Seek and you shall find. Ask and it will be given. Let not the cares of this world cause you to lose your faith in God and His beloved Son Jesus. I have heard the voice of the Lord and God has given Me direct answers to direct questions from the Bible. If you look at the world look at it as God told us it would be, not as you want it to be! Believe as if you were a little child, Total faith! Get rid of doubt. Let the Lord lead your life and stop living your life and expecting the Lord to continue to give aproval to only what you want to do. He put us in positions to do his work. If You are running into road blocks with the life you are leading, then it is time to reexamine your lifes purpose. ASK THE LORD TO SHOW YOU WHAT IS HIS WILL FOR YOUR LIFE. Remember the Kingdom of Heaven is WITHIN YOU! I struggle all the time too, but I always know God is REAL and ALWAYS THERE WITH ME! I have even been CHASTIESED by the Lord for some questions and for My lifes direction at the time. It really is US that give up on GOD! Not God giving up on US! The Prodical Son Parable! Reread it and let GOD take the world out of your Heart!

Re: Is there a reason that I can't find god.
Don`t think you are getting some very good advice here, OP. Didn`t read all of it, but some of it is just not going to help you.

This helped me, I hope it will cheer you up :)



You were on your way home when you died.

It was a car accident. Nothing particularly remarkable, but fatal nonetheless. You left behind a wife and two children. It was a painless death. The EMTs tried their best to save you, but to no avail. Your body was so utterly shattered you were better off, trust me.

And that’s when you met me.

“What… what happened?” You asked. “Where am I?”

“You died,” I said, matter-of-factly. No point in mincing words.

“There was a… a truck and it was skidding…”

“Yup,” I said.

“I… I died?”

“Yup. But don’t feel bad about it. Everyone dies,” I said.

You looked around. There was nothingness. Just you and me. “What is this place?” You asked. “Is this the afterlife?”

“More or less,” I said.

“Are you god?” You asked.

“Yup,” I replied. “I’m God.”

“My kids… my wife,” you said.

“What about them?”

“Will they be all right?”

“That’s what I like to see,” I said. “You just died and your main concern is for your family. That’s good stuff right there.”

You looked at me with fascination. To you, I didn’t look like God. I just looked like some man. Or possibly a woman. Some vague authority figure, maybe. More of a grammar school teacher than the almighty.

“Don’t worry,” I said. “They’ll be fine. Your kids will remember you as perfect in every way. They didn’t have time to grow contempt for you. Your wife will cry on the outside, but will be secretly relieved. To be fair, your marriage was falling apart. If it’s any consolation, she’ll feel very guilty for feeling relieved.”

“Oh,” you said. “So what happens now? Do I go to heaven or hell or something?”

“Neither,” I said. “You’ll be reincarnated.”

“Ah,” you said. “So the Hindus were right,”

“All religions are right in their own way,” I said. “Walk with me.”

You followed along as we strode through the void. “Where are we going?”

“Nowhere in particular,” I said. “It’s just nice to walk while we talk.”

“So what’s the point, then?” You asked. “When I get reborn, I’ll just be a blank slate, right? A baby. So all my experiences and everything I did in this life won’t matter.”

“Not so!” I said. “You have within you all the knowledge and experiences of all your past lives. You just don’t remember them right now.”

I stopped walking and took you by the shoulders. “Your soul is more magnificent, beautiful, and gigantic than you can possibly imagine. A human mind can only contain a tiny fraction of what you are. It’s like sticking your finger in a glass of water to see if it’s hot or cold. You put a tiny part of yourself into the vessel, and when you bring it back out, you’ve gained all the experiences it had.

“You’ve been in a human for the last 48 years, so you haven’t stretched out yet and felt the rest of your immense consciousness. If we hung out here for long enough, you’d start remembering everything. But there’s no point to doing that between each life.”

“How many times have I been reincarnated, then?”

“Oh lots. Lots and lots. An in to lots of different lives.” I said. “This time around, you’ll be a Chinese peasant girl in 540 AD.”

“Wait, what?” You stammered. “You’re sending me back in time?”

“Well, I guess technically. Time, as you know it, only exists in your universe. Things are different where I come from.”

“Where you come from?” You said.

“Oh sure,” I explained “I come from somewhere. Somewhere else. And there are others like me. I know you’ll want to know what it’s like there, but honestly you wouldn’t understand.”

“Oh,” you said, a little let down. “But wait. If I get reincarnated to other places in time, I could have interacted with myself at some point.”

“Sure. Happens all the time. And with both lives only aware of their own lifespan you don’t even know it’s happening.”

“So what’s the point of it all?”

“Seriously?” I asked. “Seriously? You’re asking me for the meaning of life? Isn’t that a little stereotypical?”

“Well it’s a reasonable question,” you persisted.

I looked you in the eye. “The meaning of life, the reason I made this whole universe, is for you to mature.”

“You mean mankind? You want us to mature?”

“No, just you. I made this whole universe for you. With each new life you grow and mature and become a larger and greater intellect.”

“Just me? What about everyone else?”

“There is no one else,” I said. “In this universe, there’s just you and me.”

You stared blankly at me. “But all the people on earth…”

“All you. Different incarnations of you.”

“Wait. I’m everyone!?”

“Now you’re getting it,” I said, with a congratulatory slap on the back.

“I’m every human being who ever lived?”

“Or who will ever live, yes.”

“I’m Abraham Lincoln?”

“And you’re John Wilkes Booth, too,” I added.

“I’m Hitler?” You said, appalled.

“And you’re the millions he killed.”

“I’m Jesus?”

“And you’re everyone who followed him.”

You fell silent.

“Every time you victimized someone,” I said, “you were victimizing yourself. Every act of kindness you’ve done, you’ve done to yourself. Every happy and sad moment ever experienced by any human was, or will be, experienced by you.”

You thought for a long time.

“Why?” You asked me. “Why do all this?”

“Because someday, you will become like me. Because that’s what you are. You’re one of my kind. You’re my child.”

“Whoa,” you said, incredulous. “You mean I’m a god?”

“No. Not yet. You’re a fetus. You’re still growing. Once you’ve lived every human life throughout all time, you will have grown enough to be born.”

“So the whole universe,” you said, “it’s just…”

“An egg.” I answered. “Now it’s time for you to move on to your next life.”

And I sent you on your way.

Most people are mineral deficient, polluted by the air, false religeon, garbage you hear and see and eat, detox your body, get yourself a frequency generator, You still have all the working parts. You can resonate vitamins and minerals, cure yourself from depression,any disease, ect. there are frequencies for spirtuality, christ conciousness, pineal gland(divine spirit)this should help you find the happyness you seek. more and more people are catching on to this, finaly the fda has approved these to be sold as Tens stimulators.
Try fasting for a while, drink gallons if filtered water.
I know I dont have to look far to find god, hes here everyday.
 Quoting: stars


Glad we agree on your last sentence, but I do fast. I think life isn't driven by what you put in your body, but do agree it does have an effect, but more how your mind works.

It doesn't have anything to do with frequencies or what silly christal you plant on your forhead. It has everything to do with how you interact with reality and God.

I know you will think this sounds preachy, but it really isn't meant that way, just trying to point out what I consider fact and what I think you have missed along the way.
