There are times that I have been asked how I can prove that there’s a God and I have always responded with the same quote above.
God is God all by Himself. I cannot limit him by trying to define him in the human context, neither can I constrain his Supreme presence because I seek for him to appear before me so that the doubting Thomases can believe that he exists.
I would rather believe deeply in God and live my life serving him through my fellowship with others than to spend a thousand years drifting in disbelief.
Every day, I see God. I see him in the gurgling laughter of a little child. I see him in the brilliance of the shining Sun, I see him in the birds that roam free and feed on the fat worms of the earth, I see him in the flowers that bloom in glorious colours, I see him in the love of my children and husband, I see him in everything that surrounds me.
Do you see God?

I love this. Mainly because it is the life I live. I always tell people “just because you don’t believe, does not mean he ceases to exist.” They get so confused and walk away. I am not a proselytizer, i love to live in the moment and see God in everything.

From the things that are made, as St. Paul says. Why is there something rather than nothing, not to mention this! But, when things get better, where does that better come from? My old friend, who is gone now, used to say, “When comes to me and says, hi I’m God, and shakes my hand… Yeah, he’s fry! “No man sees my face and livers.”. Seriously, it is a blessing that he hides while we serve him, for our sakes, and there is a mysterious prayer….

Beautifully said Jacqueline. I know in my heart – can I prove it ? Not to anyone else’s satisfaction. It’s for each to discover their own truth and path.

I am up early every day. One of the first things I do is open the drapes to let the first light of the day fill the rooms. My home faces east/west. This morning as I was doing my normal morning things, I stopped and saw the sun coming up over the park. The sun was shining red and the sky was filled with reds, pinks and yellows. How can one see such beauty and not feel a deep gratitude to be alive and not know for certain tha the Godhead exists?

That sounds totally blissful to view. I wonder when people question the existence of God, what exactly they have in mind when so much that surrounds you shows it.

I can’t imagine living with such a closed mind. It must be a sad life, to have nothing to look forward to after we pass from this lifetime.
