I appreciate your honesty, but come on...did you need god for that?

Yes.

Nothing in my life outside of God would have given me the 'catylist' i needed to force the Change needed to off set years of being intimidated, humiliated, and out right beaten. (daily)

Meaning that I won't know what to do or say and then just know something beyond my scope, that fits the situation or problem perfectly.

Then their are dreams/visions, and of course the angel/messenger story you guys seem to love so much. But I would say the great majority comes from simply being connected with a strong fellowship of believers and allowing God to work or give direction from with in the group.

What is your criteria for determining natural phenomena from that of divine origin?

The message has to be consistant with the bible.
