How do you connect with a God?
i have read in a wicca book that Gods contact pagans, and that Pagans can "talk" with Gods, i would like to know "how" to do this.

I can't speak for anyone else's experience, but, well, you talk to them. Pray, if you find that a more convenient word. Sometimes, it's in the context of a specific ritual, sometimes, it's little more than spontaneous stream-of-consciousness talking.

Whether or not you get a response? ::shrugs:: Well, that's not always guaranteed. If you do get a response, sometimes it's some sort of sign or omen, sometimes it's a particular sensation, some folks even get a flash of what seems like interaction. It's not like you simply invite a deity over for tea and cookies. (Well, okay, you can offer, but don't expect too many RSVPs.)

Note, however, some gods do have specific requirements on how they can be contacted. Just as you might not like being called by a telemarketer during dinner, some gods are particular about how people get in touch with them.

Well it really depends on which God or Goddess you want to talk to. I'd suggest doing more research into the mythology of the pantheon that seems most attractive to you, find out what the Gods like and what might be their requirements. Set up an altar and give them an offering, mediate, pray, etc.. All these things work.

Not I'm not a Wiccan, I'm an Asatruar...if you are curious as to how a Asatruar would go about connecting with the Gods follow this link. http://www.webcom.com/~lstead/RBRituals.html

Depends on your religion, and which god you want to talk to.
Over time people develop voices in their heads, as it says in the bible... though in those days it was visions and voices of God, not skitzophrenia... being alone in the desert, dehydration, starvation and extreme heat can trigger these things.
Now the other view.
Connection is known as Invocation, where they call as much of the Gods force as they can within themselves.
Communication is usually through ritual, and even then its usually via messengers not gods themselves.
Wicca... Talking to Gods? seems a bit advanced for Wicca. What book are you referencing? its probably just some spaced out fluffy tofu eating crystal hugging mental case new age selective wiccan.
(No offense to tofu eating, but these new age hippie ones, seem to steal vegetarians ideas too... no offense to hippies either, they steal your smoking weed and tree hugging.)

God is with you right now, in side you. Humans have a Body, a Mind, and a Spirit...
The Body always want something to eat, something to keep the Mind active, the mind knows what is right but lacks the ability to have constant control of it self. were the spirit is always in control of its self and knows nothing outside of its self, it has all the power in the Universe ready to freely give it to who ever asks for it, it is infinite, it is call God, Ala ha Divine Being, The Holy Spirit The I am that I am of this world. To contact God sit in a quiet room and do what most humans do Pray to the God in you with your mind, not your body, in so doing God will answer you by making everything you ask for to happen. depending on what you ask for it takes time. Our time is different from God's time, God being infinite, time takes a longer period of our time to happen, just believe it will happen.

As you believe so it is done unto you!!!

Adversity gives birth to Adventure

Have a Good Life, and Have Fun, Humans need to have more fun. Love each other more in a good way... XOXOXO

Post Script, try not to be hypnotized by the TV, Movies, Videos... they will lead you astray, the soul of every Human is to return to the I am that I am...

GOD: Hello. You called me.

I, Me, Myself (IMM): Called you? No, who is this?

GOD: This is God. I heard your prayers. So I thought I will chat with you.

IMM: Sure, I pray. Just makes me feel good. Actually, am busy now. In the midst of something, you know.

GOD: What are you busy with? Ants are busy, too.

IMM: Don't know. But I can't find free time. Life has become hectic. It's rush hour all the time.

GOD: Sure. Activity gets you busy. But productivity gets you results. Activity consumes time. Productivity frees it.

IMM: But I still can't figure it out. By the way, I was not expecting YOU to buzz me on instant messaging chat.

GOD: Well, I wanted to help you resolve your fight for time by giving you some clarity. I wanted to reach you through the medium you are comfortable with.

IMM: Tell me, why has life become so complicated?

GOD: Stop analysing life. Just live it. Analysis is what makes it complicated.

IMM: Why are we then constantly unhappy?

GOD: Your today is the tomorrow that you worried about yesterday. You are worrying because the act of worrying has become a habit. That's why you are not happy.

IMM: But how can we not worry when there is so much uncertainty?

GOD: Uncertainty is inevitable, but worrying is optional.

IMM: But then, there is so much pain due to uncertainty.

GOD: Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional.

IMM: If suffering is optional, why do good people always suffer?

GOD: Diamonds cannot be polished without friction. Gold cannot be purified without fire. Good people go through trials. With that experience their life becomes better, not bitter.

IMM: You mean to say such experience is useful?

GOD: Yes. Experience is a hard teacher, though. She gives the test first and the lessons afterwards.

IMM: But still, why should we go through such tests? Why can't we be free from problems?

GOD: Problems are Purposeful Roadblocks Offering Beneficial Lessons to Enhance Mental Strength. Inner strength comes from struggle and endurance, not when you are free from problems.

IMM: Frankly in the midst of so many problems, we don't know where we are heading.

GOD: If you look outside you will not know where you are heading. Look inside. Looking outside, you dream. Looking inside, you awaken. Eyes provide sight. Heart provides insight.

IMM: Sometimes not succeeding fast seems to hurt more than moving in the right direction.

GOD: Success is relative, quantified by others. Satisfaction is absolute, quantified by you. Knowing the road ahead is more satisfying than knowing you rode ahead.

IMM: Sometimes I ask, who am I, why am I here? I don't know the answers.

GOD: Seek not to find who you are, but to determine who you want to be. Stop looking for a purpose as to why you are here. Create it. Life is not a process of discovery but a process of creation.

IMM: How can I get the best out of life?

GOD: Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without fear.

IMM: Sometimes my prayers are not answered.

GOD: There are no unanswered prayers. Remember you will always get what you need when you need it, NOT necessarily what you want. Therefore at times the answer is NO.

IMM: Thank you for this wonderful chat. I think I understand now and I will try to be less fearful.

GOD: Keep the faith and drop the fear. Life is a mystery to solve, not a problem to resolve. Life is wonderful if you know how to live. And remember my Child, I am always with you! Call me anytime you want to chat!

i was just going to give a silly answer to this question, but after reading your details I figured that it would be more rude than anything to do that. .. I really don't know the answer, good luck though. Sounds like an intense job.

It's hard to have a connection with God unless you know God. God gives you information about himself in the Christian Bible.

First of all STOP reading Wicca and read your Bible the true word of God!!
