ho boy

besides literally saving my life..... TWICE
Last spring I and several other people were called to start up an independent Christian school. We were told (by God) not to affiliate it with any denomination, simply to list it as a Christ centred school
Most private or independent schools take at least 2 years to develop a business plan, find a location, develop a student base etc.... we were told this school would open in September - only 4 months!.
Through much prayer and effort, several things came into being - before we even had a building, we were getting calls for items we needed. and before we even knew it, we had a full computer lab, all the furnishings, all the supplies, a top of the line photocopier, donors were coming out of the woodwork. - our location was revealed to us in early July, and we took possession on July 21st (at almost 1/2 the asking price). Do you have any idea how long it USUALLY takes to even get a property deal of that sort put together?
We also had our licence and charitable status given to us fully months ahead of schedule.... not to mention 30 families with students ready to attend.

There isn't any way anyone can convince me this was not of God. The above is just the abbreviated version of the story, there is much much more, and it's still going on. We are just entering our 3rd term and our enrolment has grown.
God is good.... ALL the time

Cause and effect!
As anything that happens (effect) must have a driving action (cause) how can you ever site God as the cause?
All life is a series of causes and effect, like a domino effect 'caused' by the first push or was it caused by the building of the domino chain or was it me being born, I'm sure you get my drift...
Either God is responsible for ALL causes or none (we won't go into the parallel universe argument).
People tend to want to reinforce their belief by wanting to think that God has done something special 'just for them'.
Even Jesus was left to die in agony on the cross and surely he was a 'favorite' of God?
Why should your God do you any special favors?

Change my heart about something that I was so stubborn about and never thought for an instant I would be in the place I am today.....it was ALL God.
Sometimes when we pray for others to change, for God to change them, what we need is to be changed. God did this, and I am so amazed, I won't go into detail, but I know for a fact it was ALL God. Because nothing could of given me the insight as to why I feel the way I do now, about this certain situation, but that all bitterness I had is gone, and all want now is gone. I am perfectly happy to know that JESUS is the Lord of my life and that He is indeed in control and knows what is BEST for me and my family! The outcome is beautiful!

When I met my wife. When I saw her for the first time I heard a voice in my head (that wasn't my own) and I know it was God because I doubted that I really heard what I did. She also at the time was so dead set against marrage that it was truelly God. We are best friends and we have been married now for close to 2 years. We haven't had a fight or argued. We are true soul mates.

Yes it is fantastic isn't it he deals with my heart all of the time about different things that nobody else knows about and the way he can send people your way to talk to you about things only you and him have discussed it is fantastic so yes God is out of this world.

Yes! He helped me understand religion is NOT the way to go. That only personal study and experience combined with listening to my inner self will take me further spiritually.

not to get into detail, but just a series of fortunate and unfortunate events that makes ripple effects and are noticable from my point of view
