I understand that you may have some doubts, if you have never been spiritual, or not know so much about it. God wants you to put your faith in him. I think that it is possible that you are having these doubts, because something has drawn you to be closer to God. I myself was not raised to be a believer, my parents never went to church, like you, I felt a connection to God, even then. I know now, through reading the bible, prayer, and fellowship at my church, that God is everything to me. He is my healer, my provider, my father, my savior. I thank God every day for the continued blessings in my life, and for everything that I have. I know that with all of the mistakes I have made in my life, I should be dead. It is through Gods faith in me, that I am alive and well.
I can tell you, that you will not be dissapointed, but relieved. I recommend that you go to a bible based church, read the bible, and pray, this will help you.

Good concern...
Jesus once asked, which person building a tower doesn't sit down first and count the cost, to be sure he can finish it?
If you're unsure about what role faith should play in your life... take some time to "count the cost" and decide what effects it will have on your life, what benefits and what difficulties, and whether you're willing to take them. Don't get pressured this way or that way until you've thought good and hard about it.
And, don't let fear be your motivation to either make or fail to make such lasting commitments.
After that... why don't you pray about it and see how you feel? The Bible teaches us to ask God for wisdom if we need it... but to ask in faith, not wavering.

This is what faith is all about. You put your trust in God, have faith the size of a mustard seed, and you can move mountains.
I was unmarried, and childless. I promised my father that I would not get pregnant without being married. I couldn't find anyone that I remotely wished to be married to, and yet wanted a baby so bad that I couldn't think about anything else.
I decided to claim that promise...having faith the size of a mustard seed, that is...and I prayed for a baby.
There is a verse that says, "Delight yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart."
I worked hard at delighting, and tried to have faith at least the size of a mustard seed. I am happy to tell you that I adopted a baby girl right out of the hospital, she is now eight years old, and it was by the grace of God....
You can trust Him. It worked for me, and I am nothing special, believe me!!

Hello, Karma:
That is your only safety! You must lay yourself aside and put yourself in the hands of the Great I Am.
He, who suffered so much for your eternal future will never forsake or fail you--He is your best friend, and advocate before the Heavenly Father.
"It is best to trust in the Lord than to put conficence in man" (Psalms 118:8)
There is a 'secret' Bible code that proves mathematically that Jesus is the Messiah whom you need. Break the code at www.revelado.org/revealed.htm
May God bless you as you put your confidence in Him, One-Way

Without God at the center of life, one is completley miserable. You can never make a greater desicion then put your faith in the hands of the one who created you.

Matthew 17:20 And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.

You can only get to the TRUE GOD through JESUS CHRIST.
There is no other way, no other door.
Believe in THE LORD JESUS.
JESUS said , "I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE.
NO ONE COMES TO THE FATHER BUT BY ME."

Faith is basically the surrender of reason. Now are you ready to give up the capacity to make valid interpratations of what your senses perceive? Are you ready to believe in something just because they said so?
If so, well, tough luck, it may be the last free choice you will ever make.

well if you have faith in God, better than putting ur faith in organized crime to help u, religion and God gives people strength and hope, if hopeless many turn to corrupt ones to help you, who will eventually destroy you, and laugh at your corpse, once they have used u
