HOW OLD ARE YOU? REALLY, HOW OLD ARE YOU? WOULD YOU SAY THAT YOU'RE OLD ENOUGH TO KNOW MOST THINGS? WELL, IF YOU'RE WISE WITH LOTS OF EXPERIENCE YOU HAVE TO KNOW THAT GOD IS REAL.
I CAN'T TELL YOU. MOST PEOPLE WILL NOT TAKE MY WORD FOR IT. THEY HAVE TO FIND OUT FOR THEMSELVES.
I FOUND OUT FOR MYSELF WHEN I WAS TEN YEARS OLD. I CAN NAME PEOPLE ALL AROUND ME WHO DIDN"T AND I KEEP WONDERING; HOW DID I FIGURE IT OUT AND PEOPLE I LOVE COULDN'T AND STILL DON'T.
MY DEAR FRIEND LILLIE TOLD ME THAT SHE FOUND OUT THAT GOD WAS REAL BACK IN THE THIRTIES (1930'S) DURING THE DEPRESSION. THEY WERE VERY POOR AND HAD NO MONEY FOR LUNCH FOR SHE AND HER SISTER. SHE WAS ABOUT 12 YEARS OLD. SHE WENT HOME FEELING VERY DISCOURAGED AND GOT ON HER KNEES AND PRAYED TO GOD ASKING FOR A MIRACLE. SHE DIDN'T ASK FOR MONEY. SHE ASKED IF GOD COULD PUT SHE AND HER SISTERS NAME ON THE LIST SO THAT THEY COULD GET A FREE LUNCH.
THE NEXT DAY IT WAS.
I HAD SIMILAR EXPERIENCES AS A CHILD. GOD GAVE ME VICTORY EVERY SINGLE TIME! I KNOW HE'S REAL. I FOUND OUT FOR MYSELF.
But without faith it is impossible to please Him. For he that cometh to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.
HEBREWS 11: 6 (KJV)
WHAT HAS BEEN YOUR EXPERIENCE?
