how i know god is real

i was just thinking about god and my prayer life and you know how they tell you that god has three answers: yes, no, and wait? yeah, well i realized that while i get a lot of no's and wait's for things like "is ________ what i'm supposed to be doing next year?" or "can i have car?" god has never, not once, said anything but yes when i asked to be closer to him. and these are clear definitive that-was-a-crazy-coincidence yes's. and that can't be a coincidence.

  2. that's a really insightful point, and uncanny, because i was just going through a prayer book by bill hybels. hybels refers to those "search me, reveal to me, etc" prayers as "dangerous prayers" because God will follow through with them.

  3. this is DEFINITELY true. dude. i think the craziest prayer that i am wary of praying but i do it anyway is asking to grow...He will FORSURE follow through on that one.
