It's sad that people think the only way you can prove something like God is to have a visual. I hate it how some people are so ignorant to say that there is no God just by saying "Well then, let me see him. If I can't see him personally, then He must not exist!". It's called having faith in something people! You can't prove everything just by seeing the actual thing you didn't believe existed.

I honestly believe in the words of the Bible and (try to) live by them. Sure, I can't see God right now, but that's fine with me cause I have the patience to wait til I go to heaven.

Just a thought. You can comment if you want.

I totally understand what you are saying. I have the same problems with people like that at school and stuff. I try to tell them that is about faith in God but they say "...then you are just weak because you have to believe in God." I pray for them to see that being a christian takes true strength that can come from God.

I believe what you say too. My Christian's United thread just had an Atheist visitor who believes that science solves everything and that he has proof that God doesn't exist. I feel sorry for those ppl. You gotta have faith!

If you think about it, you can "see" God. Just becuase you don't see him like you see actual people, you can still "see" Him. The way you "see" Him is through other peoples lives. You "see" Him when you see a drug addict of a few years, delievered completely from all drugs. You "see" Him when somone who is down and Depressed gets delievered from it all, and is happier then a bird. That is "seeing" God, when He works in peoples lives. And its great "seeing" Him that way, becuase it fills your Heart so much with Joy and triumph, that it becomes overwhelming at times, which is awsome.

yeah we just have to remember god walked this earth many years ago and that he died for us all, I have a bible that's for teen devotions and it has a few things to go by about faith. I read it every once in a while to refresh myself about my faith and what makes my faith real. If you want a good book to read about faith there's one I read with my girl's bible study called under the overpass. Its more then worth it to have a look and I know I saw things a bit differently after reading it.
