What experience or thing reminds you of God or always astonishes you?

Question

For example, for me, experiencing discovery unfailingly does. Every time I discover something or learn something new, or watch myself or others grow, I'm completely astounded by life and reality. I'm reminded of how I thought there couldn't possibly be more than I have seen or even can imagine, yet Bam! There it is!! and it's always amazing to find out how wrong I am.

How about you? What does that for you?

Answer 1

watching the sunrise

Answer 2

Not exactly no. Well, okay, when I discovered there were a few million Baptists who have condemned all non-Jesus righteous people to hell, I got a warm fuzzy feeling inside. And astounded by life and reality. Or whatever.

Answer 3

His compassion; his long-suffering with a sick world of ungrateful people who hate one another and keep doing wrong to others every day of our lives.

I say this because although I cannot stand to see someone being hurt, I lose it (for the unfortunate person) and want to return the favor (you know what I mean).

God is uniquely magnificent. He puts up with all of this madness --- but then it will only be for a time.

Answer 4

When other people are kind to me. That always astonishes me, since I invariably think: "they don't know me very well" yet this lump tends to form in my throat and I hate it, like they got past all my defenses. I don't know what this has to do with God, but I tend to blame Him when that happens.

Answer 7
