When I went to high school I had buck teeth, and every one called me rabbit. Fortunately I had dental work done that fixed my teeth. But it was rather hurtful to have people pick out our faults. To me the devil is out to destroy lives, to constantly cause harm, whether it be through trying to pick our faults, and press them. Or to just ravage lives.
What does your teeth problem, or any human problem, have to do with any devil? People don't need a devil to treat others like shit.
Quote:I believe that God wants to heal lives, to bring rest peace and joy to people. I am also a person who believes that God will reach into any situation, to find the good in us. As a human I often look at the negatives, but God at the positives. The reason why each of us has breath is due to the fact that God still sees some good in us all.
No evidence to suggest the Christian, or related, God exists. So why even refer to such a being? It would be more intellectually honest to say we (fortunately) continue to live because nothing has killed us yet.
Quote:So why the soppy story? Well I want to offer some thing. I believe God wants to be involved in each of your lives, no matter how strongly you feel he is not there, wrong, ignorant of you etc.
And I believe this is misguided thinking on your part and not based on conclusive evidence. It's easy to state beliefs without evidence.
Quote:I have made some claims in some other posts that God has answered prayers that have been prayed. I want to reach out to you in some form of blessing. To pray that God would show his great love for you.
Confirmation bias. Heard of it? God isn't needed for coincidences to occur, and chances are you are overlooking a lot of misses in favor of hits. What about unanswered prayers?
Quote:If you have any need in your life I ask you would you be willing to lift it up to God, to just see what he is willing to do for you.
No, not anymore. Even if I still believed the Christian, or related, God did exist, I would still not submit to him because I couldn't ever acknowledge a being like him as a loving being.
Quote:So just to get the discussion going is there anything that you think God would be please of in your life?
That, I do not know, nor do I care. I don't even care about what my human father finds pleasing about me. An abusive and/or neglectful parent (or parent figure) is worth no such care.
