I have a close relationship with God. I pray everyday, and I always ask for his guidance, so that I may do what is right in my life. But in recent times, I find myself having more and more doubts about the Bible itself. Sometimes I feel torn between my belief in God and my belief in the bible. I was raised as a Catholic, and although I rarely attend church anymore, I still feel like my relationship to God is very strong. But sometimes I wonder if the Bible is just an interpretation of many different peoples relationships with God. A set of spiritual diaries if you will. Now, I'm not trying to condemn the Bible, there are many excellent points and views contained within its pages, but perhaps not all of it is true. I guess my question would be:
Is it not more important that I have my own personal relationship with God, instead of having to find Him through the words and interpretations of others?
