I had an experience about 8 years ago- I am not a religious person but no mistake it was beyond logical thought. I try to tell family & friends and they look a bit confused. I just would like to hear from anyone who had a life changing moment that could not be explained.

Yes, several times. I've had things that I've wanted but knew were out of reach suddenly become real and present in my life. I have been put into a position to help someone by a series of events to unlikely that I knew I was being directed.
As some here have said just because you can't explain it doesn't necessarily mean its god's work. BUT if the same type of thing keeps happening over and over in your life then there must be an outside force acting. I am also not religious, but I have seen too many things happen in my life not to believe in God, Allah, Jehovah, Krishna, Buddha, The Tao, The Force, or whatever you want to call it.
This is a lesson that cannot be taught, it must be experienced.

I had a liver disease for decades, and a few years ago I was terminally sick, told I would not live more that 8 months unless I have a liver transplant, then I collapsed years after that, was taken to the hospital where they tied me to a machine for life support for a week. The liver transplant list was so long. no livers were available and a decision was about to be made to push the button and stop my life-support. All by a sudden, a call came asking for transporting me to the liver transplant centre as a 100%-match young liver has become available and I was the only one who could receive this geno type. I was sent to the transplant place where doctors operated on me for almost 10 hours.
Operation was a great success and I have never had any rejection since then. It has been 7 years so far, and here I am answering your question.
Did I answer it?

Actually I filed a restraining order against him. If that bastard comes within 50 yards of me I will phone the cops. That is disgusting God touching you without your permission.
Just FYI, most other people who have an experience with God or hear God have a chemical imbalance mentally or suffer from schizophrenia. Having a friend who is a nurse in the mental ward, there are many there who have God experiences.

Several times, the first time I was shocked, scared and in profound awe. I felt privileged, thought people would think I was crazy. Ended up being very very thankful and highly grateful praying and thanking God for his favor.
It happens no matter how people laugh about it and make fun. It truly happens and there are others who have also had this experience, that's only one of the many many reasons for those who truly believe God is REAL. The Christian God, interacts with his people, that's why we know He lives and is not dead.

when i was 3...my slightly older sister gave a bottle of aspirin, thinking to make me well cause i was sick. i ended up being rushed to the hospital with aspirin poisoning. i died for 4 minutes. what i experienced while i was dead may have been no more than a vision...but it certainly affected the rest of my life. i was welcomed by Jesus, He sat me in His lap and told me i couldn't come home yet, it wasn't my time. He showed me an opossum, then sat me upon a white horse. there are a great many gaps in my childhood that i cannot recall...but this is one memory that i will cherish to my grave. I have no fear of death, as I know who and what awaits me. i have faced death several times since then, and God has rescued me each time. i nearly drowned twice in one day (thanks to my own stupidity), and would have if both times God did not cause me to breath water til i reached the surface where i expelled the water from my lungs and took in air...the second time this happened, my mother witnessed my coming to the surface and the gush of water that came out of me. but God has touched me in a more gentle way as well...when i was but a child...one night i had to go to bed just when my favorite tv show came on...oh how i cried my little heart out...but even as i was crying i realized how silly i was being...but then i couldnt seem to stop crying, so, i asked God if He would please give me a hug....and insantly, the crying eased, the lump melted, the tears dried, and i was calmed and comforted....so if anyone asks me today...does God exist...my reply is a resounding yes, but can i proove it, no...it isnt for me to proove Gods existance because God shows Himself to those who have a willing heart...all others will deny Him if He stood right before their eyes.

Well, I have been touched by His Holy Spirit, but it's different then just being 'touched' by God. When He comes into your heart and washed you of your sins, He touches you for the first time and washes you clean. Every time you pray and ask Him to forgive you of a sin or your everlasting sin(s), He will touch you. Or when you or a friend or family is sick and He heals them, He touches them. A lot of people have been touched by God, but it's never physical, it's spiritual. No one can be touched by God like you touch a person or a thing.

I saw a big foot come out of a cloud and kick a guy in the pants. Seriously, though, yesterday I listened to a man who was gleaning food from the dumpster telling me about the voice of an angel telling him to dumpster dive. It seems harmless but there are accounts of people gouging out an eye because it has offended them (so beware of going too deep into true believerism).

I have had many, I have been healed after the doctor could do nothing and many other times I have been touched by God.

I have experienced miracles. In each case the miracle has been that I was given knowledge that I could not possibly know. In one case I saved someones life by warning then of danger in Spanish. Thing is, I don't speak Spanish.

God guides who he wills, if one prays and prayers dont be answered some ppl tend to give up , but its all about having faith, this world , life is a test, to see how we react to situations and others things, ,God tests us different ways and in different situations, and different ppl get tested differently, its about havin faith, ive been close to God ALLAH all my life, i know there is ALLAH there, i keep praying for things no matter if they be answered or not in that instance but they will be answered, keep beliveing and u will always be touched.
