everyone stumbles.
we're human. that you are aware of your "errors" or misdeeds, is terrific. life is about improving oneself, continually, and learning from your mistakes. that's all a real god will want of you. and, if a god want you to know s/he is there, s/he will let you know. if you want to be crazy enough to believe that gods listen to you when you mumble into your hands for a new bicycle or to cure your heart disease, or whatever such nonsense, then go for it, if you like to waste time that way. to each their own. some people need to mumble into their hands and think that god hears their mumblings... to that i simply say "whatever floats your banana!!"
so...chill, go have a mocha at the Bux, and enjoy life. even when you stumble -- there's usually something good to learn from it.
Of course, some people here (who have their heads firmly shoved up their butts) will tell you that "jeebus is the only real blah-blah" -- and you can see right through their mindless brainwashing. dismiss them as the mindless mental midgets that they are... Cheers!!

first of, God is not a her
God is God, God is a Spirit, Jesus is part of the Godhead, and everything is Him or He
Adam is a male, therefore, God and Jesus are male
Only you can connect with God. Nobody here on earth can connect for you. Through Jesus you only can connect with God
Jesus said, "I Am The Way, The Truth, and The Light." "No man cometh unto the Father, but by Me." You go to Jesus and Jesus will go to the Father for you. The Bible is the Word of God, you either reject it or accept it. YOU CANNOT REJECT IT AND FOLLOW GOD.
Jesus said, "You cannot serve two masters." You cannot serve money and serve God. You pick, damnation or eternal life Plain and Simple, that christian mumbo jumbo is the absolute truth for it came directly from the Son of the Living God. THERE IS NO OTHER WAY, God himself said it

You have always been connected to God; you are part of God. God does not simply watch over you, but is everything that you are...God is perfect wholeness, love, and peace, all without opposite. You cannot leave God, and God cannot leave you.
We all stumble. The point is not the stumbling, but whether we decide to get up and keep going, until we see that God is ever with (within) us. Never give up.

To connect with God I just talk to Him very reverently and sometimes even very desperately and he always hears me and answers. When you say "Christian mumbo jumbo" I don't understand what you are talking about.
I am talking about the true and living God the Father of Jesus Christ.

The God I connect with is my Father in Heaven, but never the less, prayer and meditation. In other words Prayer is me talking and meditation is listening for the answer.

You can connect to God through prayer, find what your spirituality is and embrace it. Take a look inside your soul and see what it tells you.

When I finally felt a connection to God it was when I got honest enough to realize that I had a lot of ideas about who God was or might be - and even who I might want God to be. And when I was willing to face reality that God may not have been who I'd wanted Him to be or imagined Him to be, I began to really want to know who He truly was. I mean, people can tell you what they know about God, but it isn't until a person becomes willing to let God be who He is and make that real to his or her heart that stuff starts to really happen.
I mean, would you want someone to come to you with all the assumptions that they knew you having never taken the time to get to know you? And there sitting there in your presence telling you and others all these things about who you are, and you're listening thinking, "They've never even taken the time to talk to me, or get to know me, or even hear what I had to say. How are they sitting there acting like they know me when they don't have the first clue about what matters to me the most, etc.?" I don't know about you, but that would kind of irk me. Actually, it would irk me a lot.
And I know you were referring to God as her, and that's where you're at. I'm referring to God as Him because that's where I'm at. I just wanted you to know I'm not saying Him to buck your idea about God. So hopefully, you'll just let me be where I'm at and refer to God as Him because this really is where I'm at with God. I read the Bible on a daily basis, the Bible is a big part of my life, the Bible refers to God as a Him, and I have peace with that.
And since we're on that subject, there's really no point in getting hung up in whether God is a him or her. God made all, God is all and in all. God is love. These are just a few of the things God wants us to know and come to find true about Him. As long as we're coming to Him honestly and earnestly, He'll make it clear what He wants us to know about Him.
When I connect with God I don't come with my own merit. I know I don't eeven have a leg to stand on there. I come looking for mercy, and I always find it. I come earnestly wanting to know who He is. I come wanting a heart connection with Him that's real.
I don't come to Him the same way every time. Sometimes I come just with a quiet heart that yearns for Him and reaches out to Him without my mouth ever uttering a word. He's met me there many times. In fact, some of the sweetest times I've had with Him have been just that way. Sometimes I come torqued off. And what I love about Him is that He always brings me around to where I see things the way He sees things, and then I'm not mad anymore. I'm at peace once again.
Basically, I come to Him with everything - with whatever's on my mind or whatever's in my heart. He's God, but He's also my best friend. It's been a relationship that's been cultivated for over 12 years, and the relationship continues to grow and get deeper and sweeter all the time.

God is not a "she". And, there is one mediator between God and man, that is Jesus Christ.
Talk to Jesus....He is the savior and the son of God. He cares for and hears you.
