My mom used to say that, too. How do you tell the difference between god's help and what you've done yourself? You don't. You give your god the credit, and keep on thinking that you aren't the one in control of your own life.
Not for me, thanks. I knocked, the door didn't open. After a while, I tired of waiting, and moved on. If there is a god, he clearly didn't give a shit about me., so I don't feel obligated to care about him.
He's the one who didn't want a "personal relationship" ... not me.
