Hello Pudding,

Have you ever thought about the phrase "believe in God"?

When I was a small girl, I "believed in" Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy, and the Easter Bunny. All of these were taken away from me as I grew older.....and, I was thoroughly disappointed.

So, as I grew even older, and people started talking about "believing in God" telling fantastic stories about the Garden of Eden, a man named Noah and another named Moses, I wondered when they would take these away from me.

As time went by, I realized that I didn't like anyone's way to God. People were so hypocratic and I was so disappointed. Church docturnes left me baffled and yet, I knew that there is a God.

There are many paths up the mountain to God's throne and I found one that I could travel. Do I "believe in God"? The answer is no. I know God. And he knows me.

Do I want you to think the way I do? Nope.
You can, but you don't have to.

Anyway, I just wondered if you had ever thought about the words "believe in".

Hope this isn't too far off the topic.

more times than you could even imagine SandyO I had another topic here (who is your god)etc....... You are one step ahead of me, and that is good because you believe in something.
Thank you for your comments though, because I can relate.
