Snuggs09: First, I forgot to mention g/f Summer.

Yes, I feel that God is within me, but what I don't do is expect Him to solve all my problems because if I expected that of Him, it would be a selective process for Him. What I mean is, He would have to choose, do I give her the car or her the baby. Do I keep this one alive or make sure that one gets the death penalty.

Like someone said, He doesn't answer all prayers and that in itself his His way of answering.

So why botherig praying if there's a 50/50 chance it will get answered. And when it doesn't get answered, what do you do?



Hey snuggs bouquet

Just wanted to say Hi

I think my heads a bit too battered now to get into this again lol I'll go back to my 'not so serious self' and take part in the 'not so serious threads' I think morgan and I were just looking for someone to say something that may just bring a lil peace to our hearts thats all

I have to agree with you here....far to many bad things happen to far many innocent people/children... for me to believe..why would 'god' want children to suffer and die in awful ways...ir..starve to death due to no rain in some countries!!

I think I stopped believing at 15, after getting top mark in religion education at school!!..

also there is the arguement....there are so many gods in this world....so which one is the real one...

pubwrite08: Because wether they believe in God or not. God loves them it is the way it is.


what!!!....sorry but I dont agree there....I have no problem with people believing in god, its personal chioce..but dont tell me 'he loves he' frustrated

Only managed it for about 9 months , then went back to elderly and adults with special needs. But i truely applaud the people who do it long haul. I used to go home and just cry the suffering was awful to see, the emotional trauma of the parents ripped your heart out bouquet

i quiet agree with Ray, God is not a magician but rather a father who wants to get closer to us by laying and pouring our hearts out to him not to consume it upon our lust but for some people to be blessed in any way God blesses us.GOD DOES ANWERS PRAYERS AND HE IS STIL IN THE BUSINESS OF DOING SO.applause applause
