Why did God talk to Saul and strike him blind for three days to get him to turn back to God? I am a sinner like Saul was, but God has not done anything dramatic to get my attention? According to the bible, God talks to some people (i.e. Noah, Moses, Abraham, etc) so why doesn't he come talk to me ? Does he care more for some souls than others ?

God intervenes directly in some peoples lives by revealing Himself to them. He also intervenes on some others by keeping away from them. You need to act in such a way that He notices you and then He will reveal Himself to you.

Johnny: The answer to your question is this. God intervenes in the affairs of mankind to further His overall plan He started from the Garden of Eden, where He allowed the most powerful Cherub, Satan [Arch angel] to be pitted against Adam and Eve [humans], with full knowledge of the outcome. Noah, Abraham and Moses were all Patriarchs [Fathers] key humans under devine selection [sanctified] - placed apart for a devine purpose ... that's why . God views the big picture and works history towards the fulfilment of that end.

If God did intervene in your life, today, would you accept it or would you be among the first to complain, about not being allowed your free will? on the other hand I think that if you examine his word you may realize that God actually used angels to be messengers for him and talk to people.

There is no direct intervention. We'd just like to think there's such a thiing. Keeps us from feeling entirely responsible or alone. That doesn't stop you from having a direct conversation if you want - supposedly God listens. And that ought to be good enough.

i think God would like you to turn to him for the simple reason that you love him,not for the reason of testing him,try doing right by God,i dare say your life will take a dramatic turn

do u believe in Jesus? if so...didnt u belive without seeing God? in John chapter 20 Jesus told Thomas: 'Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.' So God touches each person in a different way...we shud not depend on the way we FEEL ( means to experience His presence)...but BELIEVE that Jesus is already in our hearts.
God bless u,
Jesusâ¥u.
