Belief3:30am monday, 24th december
I remember when I was young I was hungry for knowledge. It was, as Einstein put it, to know the mind of God — and I wanted to be the one to complete what Einstein had started with Relativity. I dreamed of physics, I believed in no miracles, and I thought that faith was a waste of time. I was your basic twentieth century intellectual: I believed in only what my two hands could touch, what my ears could hear, and what my eyes could perceive. Materialist all the way, and I don't mean the kind who wants money; I mean one who thinks that there is nothing ever which is supernatural, that all could be described by the sciences of man.

I did not know it then, but I think now that to be a materialist takes just as much faith as one who puts trust in that which is unseen, he who believes in God. To believe either is to put one's faith in the realities of other people — in physics, those who have actually seen an atom split, and in religion, those who have seen the miraculous of God. We need evidence, evidence for both. To those who do not believe in God and Jesus Christ, I say to you not to put your soul into it until it makes sense for you. God calls whom He will, and as He has shown me that He exists, I say that He will show you. Don't be surprised, however, if you find yourself one day praying and discover that someone is listening.

Yes;there is a GOD and I want to thank him for sending his son to die for my sins and aflicitons.Love to a materialist must be hard to accept.It has no physical boundaries;you can not see or touch it.You feel it inside you;in your heart.How much will one person do just to feel loved?Jesus gives all of us his love freely;all you have to do is ask for it.Love it grows from a spark to a raging fire inside you.You can not control who it lets you love;it seems to have a will of it's own and goes to who it chooses.To make someones life completely change all you have to do is show them love.Love will take over their life as well.To be loved is one of the greatest feelings we all can have.Love makes today;tommorrow and forever worth living.It is always looking for you to share itself with anouther person;sometimes you just have to let your love loose first.Love always comes back to you;just on it's timetable not yours.

That is a very interesting story. I agree with you on the fact that most people myself included have had difficulties with faith in their lives. I dont practice any particular religion but I do believe in God.I dont believe I should limit myself to only one groups perception of God. I believe I found God in a way that most people of faith can't understand.I like my way of thought and as for nourishment of my soul I get that from each day that I am alive. I read but I don't read any bible. I believe that all people develope and change based on situations and events. I can write all night about this stuff but I wont.
