He proved to me that He is there.

He exists and there is no denying that.

I asked Him to show me and He did.

One other thing I believe is that every day shouod be Thanksgiving Day.

Just be thankful for what you have.

 

 

Lord, You have given me so much,
The will to see, compare,
The things that just make common sense.
You've shown me that You care.
So I believe.

I believe because You've given me,
The curiosity,
To search for truth in history,
To search until I find it;
And I believe.

You've given me Your Book Of Love,
To read, research, compare,
With other books that other's wrote,
Your wisdom Lord, You share.
So I believe.

It's all laid out before us.
Laid out in black and white,
And we make our own decision,
To choose to see The Light,
And I believe.

You freely share it all with us,
And You let us decide,
Who will be our Leader, Lord,
Who will be our Guide.
And I believe.

For we all serve a Master,
Whether we now it or not,
And Who we choose to follow,
Determines what our lot;
And I believe in You.

Because You listen to my prayers.
You're always by my side.
You give me courage, lend Your strength,
And give me peace inside.
So I believe.

And when my time is come Lord,
I fear not what betide,
For You are here beside me, Lord,
And You will be my Guide.
This I Believe.

I pray everyday to understand Him the way you do. It is hard though to do so. Thanks for sharing.

Understanding isn't always the answer. It's just believing that He is in control and has our best interests at heart even though we don't always understand. Take note from the Book of Job. Thanks bunches my friend for stopping by. God Bless, JB
