When my brother was in critical condition after a horrible car accident and I was on my way to the hospital facing the real possibility he would be dead by the time I got there, I already believed in God and offered up the whole situation under His will. Thankfully, he made it and is fine, living a great life today. Since I had the gift of faith to begin with, I was able to face that difficult journey with the presence of God.

Well, I already had faith in the Lord, but I got closer to him when I finally opened my eyes to see that he would bring me out of anything, as long as I call on his name. I was raised to believe I am on only 16, but when you go through things in your life, you will truly find the true meaning of believing. I never let any thing get me down any more, b/c now, I see all my hardships as a test, and with the Lord I know I will pass.

The most painful experience I ever had to go through was BECAUSE I believed in God. And the experience only strengthened my faith.
In 1996, My father died in March, my mother died October, and my husband died November very suddenly and unexpectedly---he was only 40. In 1997, Six months after I buried my husband, I was diagnosed with breast cancer and given 6 months to live---one year if they cut my body up to where even my own mother wouldn't recognize I was her daughter. I passed on the carving up of my body. I did, however, go through several series of chemo and radiation; I was bald twice.
My Jesus, I love thee I know thou art mine! Job became my favorite book of the Bible. If we can profess our faith and love our Lord even in adversity, he will bring us out and onto the mountain top and into the sunshine!
As you can see----I'm still here. And there is nothing that will keep me from professing Jesus is Lord. If my fingers are cut off, I will use my voice recognition system that I used for court reporting.

wow. just like my question:D [except the last part]
umm. probably growing up overall w/o my dad and mom talking and haveing no siblings or close friends. Nothing really caused me to believe in God, because I already do, [and most of the things that do cause me have been nice, heartwarming experiences] but I have heard of many instances that happened like that..
I'm still young so I have lots more time:D

I almost died in a car crash in 1952, a couple months before I turned four years of age. In Vietnam is 1968, I saved a little girl from drowning in a rice paddy; she was a couple months from being four years of age.
My life took an abrupt turn closer to God; he works in mysterious ways. Even in China, I snatched a lady from in front of a speeding taxi and saved the life of a fifteen year old student who would have downed in her own vomit without my help. I ask myself why; but the only answer is God.

A medical test/procedure that I was only mildly sedated and for. It was the most traumatic and painful experience of my life.
I already believed in God before it and it didn't affect my beliefs at all. If anything, it only made me more thankful for (and humbled by) all of the suffering that Jesus went thru on my behalf...
Just my two cents :)

My sister, and her husband of just 7 months were brutally murdered 6 yrs ago. She was my younger sister, and I loved her like I love my daughter's. We grew up in very cruel foster care, and having her die like this after our violent lives seemed like a stab in my heart. No, it didn't make me believe in God. In fact, the opposite. I was so pissed off at "God". How can a god that's supposed to be loving, and caring let bad things happen to such innocent people. We're supposed to be God's children. I can tell you being a parent, I would NEVER let my children suffer. It's a hard concept for me to grasp.

Lost everything including my kids due to drug addiction. And when I finally wasn't high anymore and cleaned up and have to live everyday still without my daughters. Well lets just say I haven't believed in God for along time.

Watching my Grand Father rot away with painful and humiliating cancer......And no, It did not make me believe in God. Watching My Father die a slow and humiliating death with bad lungs and heart. No It did not make me closer to God. Now someone will read this and use one of their cute little fables from the bible to answer this. SAVE IT MORONS.
