What is your personal proof that God exists?
please do not give the cliché "because the Bible says so"
What is your proof?
mine is the first time I had my confession (I'm Catholic), after I left the confessional I felt so light, literally as if my soul has been cleansed. the thing about it is that though it was only a practice of confession, where the practice of prayer with the loan before going to the real thing. I have thought a blessing, and I remember leaving there with a sense of enlightenment I guess you could say. I felt so pure and light. light was the most dominat sensation I had. I felt like I could fly. I think this time it was my test.
what's yours?
- Babylonians now former Jehovah's Witnesses, What did your former Church teaches about the Lord?
- Widows or widowers can Become nuns and priests in the Catholic Church?
- Catholic::: What is your favorite prayer to say?
- Catholic::: What is your favorite prayer to say?
- This is not proof enough that Catholics are not saved?
I was raised Catholic, but after many years I have had to face the reality that I was much better saint sinner. I turned to find my own path in life, and I've seen more of life more disappointed I became. Finally got to the point where I blamed God for everything that was wrong - both in myself and in the world, and told him to get out of my life. I think at the time thought it does not matter much, since it does not seem to pay much attention to me anyway, but I felt when I said that God gave his face away from me, and everything in my life became empty, sense, sad and depressing. I kept sinking lower every day, refuses to turn to God. I became the least neurotic, probably psychotic. I was losing touch with reality. Then one day in this state I came home, fell on my face and began to mourn. Then something happened and totally did not expect did not even know was possible - a single voice speaks the word in my heart: "Maybe Jesus really die for their sins"
Suddenly, something happened inside me, and it was as if someone turned the lights on a deep dark cave, and all my confusion and despair and hopelessness are expelled and replaced with a sense of love and forgiveness and acceptance, and felt peace and joy did not know, for the first time in my life, everything finally seems to make sense. I became a person of that day and never have questioned the reality of God and Jesus Christ, the Son of God and my Savior.
It was a year later I started reading the Bible, and realized what happened to me was the Bible all the time. It is the Gospel of John, chapter 3, Jesus refers to this as "born again." I know that was what happened that day, I became born again, he became a child of God through faith in Jesus, and I have loved God (and my neighbor) ever since. This was more than 37 years.
Immediately after reading the Bible, began responding to my prayers and it was all so clear!
Hes done many miracles including the healing of my wrist!
I have none.
Soul cleansing experience that you mention .. I felt that. I have the same thing after talking to my therapist or a good friend, seeing a beautiful sunset, laughing so hard my sides hurt, sitting on the beach watching the waves crash, eat a banana split with caramel sauce and cream batida, winning at Monopoly, etc.
There is no evidence that it is not. And the bible is proof that he is
If you have to have "proof", then it is not faith.
If you want some witnesses …. here are couple of mine: looking to grow my own leg 2 inches at the age of 27, after many prayed for me …. I had walked with a limp my whole life until that day from that day …. until now, my legs are perfectly even in length. For weeks after it happened, I felt light as a feather, and others could see a change in my face and see how happy he was.
Second, do appear in a totally empty oil bottle of anointing oil, after 2 or personally prayed for my friends …. God had promised my friend, the owner of the bottle, the oil never runs out, so you always have oil to anoint and pray for the sick.
There are many, many healings I have seen with my own eyes, including eye blind, deaf, cancer, and broken bones.
But as you mentioned, is the constant and valuable presence of the Lord Jesus in my personal life that is my proof, together with His Word, the Bible.
PS: God also healed of an otherwise "incurable" condition in my jaw joints and my doctor has admitted that there divine intervention for my joints to be much better!
One more: A lady in a church that had been abandoned to die of breast cancer is totally free of cancer within 2 weeks after I prayed with her. Let the atheists and mock rant …. one day Jesus will face his bow and kneel before him!
PS "Ms. secret admirer: I too have experienced the fragrance of the presence of the Holy Spirit …. I am not Catholic, so they can not agree is the Mother Mary, but simply a deep, strong presence of the Lord in the room where they are praying and worshiping Him! A beautiful aroma …. sometimes like a rose, sometimes, like incense, the anointing oil or …. but very, very real! (Remember: Jesus is "The Rose of Sharon")
Many of my prayers have been answered there not a higher being. And I do not even really follow a specific religion. =)
i do not need proof. I just think !!!!!
Its so good Catholic who lives in God, good. Is celebrating Lent, I am not Catholic, but a very small denomination called Church of Christ. Do not live in satins and Mary (just as a mother). We live from one person to faith through baptizem (not as a baby), and then get the holy spirit.
His own human body animation, now seeks to bring one if you can!
Some may call this coincidence or just luck. But when I was younger I had drowned. nobody had seen me for a long time. I know that should have been dead. But I did not. Interfened and believe that God allowed me to stay alive. Also on my way home. I was tired and it was early in the morning .. and I had not slept all night. and me and my brother fell asleep and instead of going into the hole he was with us. that somehow it was more in the lane next to where the ground is still no way that could overturn the car. have been many times when I knew it was God who saved me. He has done many things for me.
God and there is no person who believes in him shall be in hell. My show is, how can we be in this world, we simply insudden in this world, of course, because in this world is to worship God and watch your creation in this world, heaven and many more that had been created .
Secondly, is the cult of human nature and something that the greater power to him, the way the Communist Example not think God exists, that the nature of the channel by its worship of cult leader, which nowaday atheist who channel their nature worship is involved in this life without limits of style, such as spending money to buy until they couldnt able to do so.
Therefore, the conclusion is, God and human resources to ensure there forever had the feeling of fear, until the resurrection is the Creator on the Day of Reckoning.
from my experience would be an earth bound spirit unforgettable (experince supernatural), there is evidence of an afterlife. I am here to say that there is a god.
God is as real as Albus Dumbledore.
But this came up a lot the first time I felt God's presence, I was reading my Bible and had a sense of peace (which surpasses all underestimating) Next, the presence was so strong I'm afraid. So grab the phone and ran to another room and called my grandmother and told me where Moses was when God heard and ran to hide, she told me that it is still human and supernatural so that's why I'm afraid my grandmother was a faithful Catholic, who is with him now.
Wow ….
I feel the same way ….
I tell you my story ….
I was in this great program in Catholic Magic Mountain …. About 5 months ago ….
He hated the event …. I felt so alone …. I am God …. I realized I had no friends …. I was so ready to leave and never go to church again. …
As the event ended …. We were asked to turn to the person next to us, and put your hand on them, and pray …. Well, I had this girl named Cindy (I just liked her)
And she began to pray aloud, and praying for me ….
I left the happy event! And saying …." I think I'm going to give you a bit more "
I feel the same way about confession too ….
I go every week!
=)
All my best!

So many of my prayers have been answered and I have received signals with a nature just look around the world and how it all works together, all this happened not only in error, if you call it God, a higher power, some large be higher, there is someone / something in the office.
Every time I ask God for a sign (to try not to do, but sometimes I get very down) at the end of the day something will happen to show that I heard. The other day I asked him to sign as I pulled out of the house to go run errands, I pulled up a traffic light in front of me had a bumper sticker on the car in front of me, "Smile, God loves you" can Apparently not much, but it is time for everything. Always ask for a sign of these things pop up, had a brown paper bag in my room that I use to breathe during panic attacks. I want out of the bag crumpled in my dressing room. At night, when I turned the light, the shadow on the wall wrinkled bag was doing was a side view of Mother Mary praying with his hands togther with the veil and all. The steam from my shower in my bathroom window to the Fogger and began to clarify that sorta made a face image of Jesus (messy, but you can see and by the time I called to my heart has evaporated.
I know this sounds like a bunch of BS, but I have no reason to lie, I am sure that everyone receives the signals, but may only seek to disregard or not.
Existence of god does not matter. If you have to believe. However, the belief does not change the outcome of the World. Why not focus on the here and now instead of creating a world?
just say so, I do not think I need any physical evidence of God to believe in him … I just want to share my experiance.
and that "light" feeling, once I went to pray at the chapel in my home … and I felt very worried and asked him so hard for my grandfather because he was sick and was a hard time, and these are the pink wax is placed in front of the Virgin Mary and the room smelled of roses. There was no other there is no pink or something like that, but I began to smell the roses chance and I was thinking that you can not because it's wax.
after that, I told my mom about it and told me that the Virgin Mary makes the people and said that it is in its pre through that smell.
pretty cool (:
feel that it is not about God, however. i bet there is, just remember you now.
confission forgiveness is not enough
u have to baptize in water because
that what Jesus Christ did his willingness to continue
to wash our sins former John3: 5
I have always believed in God. My staff is watching out of the test. This does not just happen …
My bathroom mirror
My mirror.
I'm no different to most of the believers who bear witness to the changes in my heart and roads that have opened before me.
I do not need to prove anything to anyone in this regard, because if others believe that what I do or not is totally irrelevant to my spiritual well-being and how I live my life.
I belief that is not a sport or hobby in which they discuss with others about who is better, saved, lost, or whatever.
I have said this more than once experienced the supernatural or otherwise I would not be alive today.
