A Collection of my Thoughts

 

I have a friend who doesn't believe in God. He's smart and a nice guy, but without faith. So I'm going to try to use this to devise something I can give to him.

He says he's realistic; he won't believe in what he can't see. But if we could see God, or hear him, or touch him, etc. then there would be no such thing as faith. Everyone would know he existed, and the world would ceise to be free willed right?

But maybe

Maybe he's looking for something physical. Something of this world...Maybe a guy with a beard, maybe a beam of light, maybe a burning bush. Maybe he expects something of God. But what I think is God isn't material, but what you see when someone agree's to come to church with you for the first time, or when someone stops to help you pick up your dropped groceries, or when someone lets you stay at their house when you couldn't be home.

God gives us many wonderful, beautiful things. It is a shame if you can't see that. Maybe if he's looking for something awe-inspiring, something spectacular, something God like...just look around...

Good Night

 

God Bless

you bring up a very good point with the free will idea, and it seems like youre in a really tough situation. when ever i hear about ths kind of thing a song comes to mind. during a part in this song you hear a person say "who can see the wind? nobody can see the wind, but everyone can see the effects of the wind." what they are getting to , is that no one can see God, but we all can see and fell the blessings he bestows on us. run that by him and see what he says.

How 'bout this one... he can't see his brain, but he still believes it's there right?  He can't see it, feel it, hear it, or anything.  He's just been told all his life it's there.  He sees the effect of it with his thinking, and that's the same as God... he can see what God does for us.
