I hope and pray this for everyone What God wants is to give everyone eternal life, but He isn't going to force anyone to accept.
I bolded and italicized above so that you might be able to better understand how easily you shift in and out between describing yourself and your god. You convey an overall message about either equally and if the distinction weren't made the grammar and language makes it appear as though it could be one long statement about a single entity. Why do you suppose it is so easy to accomplish this?
You seem to shift back and forth when taking breaths. I'm fairly certain you may be confusing the two subjects in the course of the message.
