I HAVE BEEN ASKED BY SEVERAL PEOPLE THAT INFAMOUS QUESTION WHY DO I LOVE GOD?

YOU CAN'T SEE HIM, NOR CAN YOU TOUCH HIM, SO WHY DO YOU LOVE HIM, OR EVEN KNOW IF HE EXIST'S?

LET ME START OUT BY SAYING, THAT MOST PEOPLE I KNOW WANT TO BELIEVE IN SOMETHING THAT THEY NEVER THOUGHT THEY COULD FATHOM.

THEY WANT TO BELIEVE IN SOMEONE OR SOMETHING THEY THINK THEY COULD NEVER TOUCH.

WANT TO HEAR SOMEONE..EVEN LONG TO TALK TO SOMEONE THAT WILL NEVER COME ALONG.

FOR ME, IN THE BEGINNING, I TOO WAS WHAT PEOPLE CALL A DOUBTFUL THOMAS.

LET ME GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE OF HOW I KNOW THAT I LOVE GOD.

WHEN GOD IS NOT AROUND, I FEEL LOST, EVEN WITHOUT HIS PRESENCE, THERE IS A BIG EMPTY SPACE WHERE HE FILLED UP MUCH OF IT.

WHEN I AM DOING WELL, OR WHETHER I AM AT MY WITT'S END, HIS LOOVE IS NEVERENDING.

I FEEL HIS WARM HANDS GUIDE ME THROUGH MY DARKEST DAYS AND LIFT ME UP WITH MERCY AND FORGIVENESS IN HIS HEART.

I MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SEE GOD HOWEVER, IF I DID NOT BELIEVE IN HIM TODAY, I WOULD NEVER GET THE CHANCE TO SEE HIM TOMORROW,

THE MORE I GROW AS A CHRISTIAN, THE MORE I FEEL HIS PRESENCE.  HE TALKS TO ME AND I OBEY, HE TOUCHES ME AND I FEEL HIM.

SO WHY DO I LOVE GOD?

HE IS MY FATHER, MY STRENGTH, MY PROVIDER AND THE LOVE OF MY LIFE.

I WILL GET THAT WONDERFUL CHANCE TO MEET MY FATHER AT HEAVENS GATE SOMEDAY, AND BE ABLE TO SEE, TOUCH AND HEAR GOD'S WONDERFUL PRAISES.
