First of all, True... feelings and God are two different things. If you follow your "feelings" you will never find God. Feelings are manipulated by Satan to fool and trick us.

The Truth, however, has nothing to do with feelings. God created the world and the universe for us. He created us. Satan, who was once the perfect angel, became full of pride and decided to take over the earth by fooling us with sin. We chose to sin. God then devised the perfect plan to save us. He came to earth in the form of Jesus Christ and died on the cross for us. The Bible tells us all of this and it is the true Word of God.

If you accept Jesus IN YOUR HEART as your Savior, you are saved. No checklists work, no amount of good deeds will save you. Only Jesus.... less of me and more of Jesus... less of me and more of Jesus

pretty general question... My feelings are that He is the Creator, and the Great I Am. He is everything and the most important thing in my life. I wish everyday for opportunities to show Him that and not let those opportunities pass me by with complacency. But, I'm no good. Thankfully He loves me anyway.

GOD IS MYSTERIOUS. Figuring him out is a waste of time. God put us here and he put everything we need right here on Earth. So now, the fun part, we get to figure out what being here is all about and what's in store for us. Good Luck.

God is the collective of all of us. We are all the pieces that make up GOD. God is Love, and God is choice and God is ever-present and we can choose to RE-member ourselves to him or her presence or we can avoid and remain unconnected. GOD is everywhere and in everyplace. Omnipresent - we can either choose to join in or refuse. There is no right or wrong answer either - because God is everything, meaning your answer is right and my answer is right.

When you see a bridge, a building or an automobile, you automatically consider the person or company that constructed it. When you see a large ship, an airplane, a rocket, a satellite; you also think about how incredible it is. [You know by its design who the maker is.] When you see a super international airport, nuclear plant or an orbiting space station you have to be thoroughly impressed with the engineering dynamics that are involved. Yet, these are just things that are manufactured by human beings. So what about the human body with its massive and intricate control systems? Think about it.

Think about the brain: how it thinks, functions, analyzes, retrieves and stores information, as well as distinguishes and categorizes information in a millionth of a second, all of this constantly.

Think about the brain for a moment. (And don't forget the fact that you are using your brain to consider itself!) This is the brain that made the automobile, the rocket ships, the boats, and so on. Think about the brain and who made that!

Think about the heart. Think about how it pumps continuously for sixty or seventy years [taking in and discharging blood throughout the body] maintaining steady precision throughout the life of the person.

Think about the kidneys and the liver and the various functions they perform. The purifying instruments of the body that perform hundreds of chemical analyses simultaneously and also controls the level of toxicity in the content of the body. All of these are done automatically.

Think about your eyes, the human cameras, that adjust, focus, interpret, evaluate, discern color automatically, naturally receiving and adjusting to light and distance.

Think about it-Who created them? Who has mastered their design and function? Who plans and regulates their function? Human beings do this? No, of course not. What about this universe?

Think about this. This earth is one planet in our solar system, and our solar system is one [of possible many] solar systems. Our galaxy, The Milky Way, is one of the galaxies. There are ONE HUNDRED MILLION GALAXIES in the universe. They are all in order and they are all precise. They are not colliding with each other. They are not conflicting with on another. They are swimming along in an orbit that has been set for them. Did human beings set that into motion and are human beings maintaining that precision? No, of course not.

Think about the oceans, the fish, the insects, the birds, the plants, bacteria, and chemical elements that have not yet been discovered and cannot be detected even with the most sophisticated instruments. Yet each of them has a law that they follow. Did all of this synchronization, balance, harmony, variation, design, maintenance, operation and infinite numeration happen all by chance? Do these things function perfectly and perpetually also by chance? No, of course not. That would be totally illogical and foolish. In the least, it indicates that however it came to exist-it exists beyond the realm of human capability. We will all agree to that. The Being, The Almighty Power, God, The Creator who has the knowledge to design and proportion created all of this and is responsible for maintaining it. HE is the only one that deserves praise and gratitude.

If I were to give each one of you one hundred dollars for no reason, just for being here, you would at least say thank you. What about your eyes, your kidneys, your brain, your children, and your life: Who gave you all of that? Is He not worthy of praise and thanks? Is He not worthy of your worship and recognition?

My brothers and sisters, that in a nutshell, is the goal and purpose of this life. Allah said to us in the Holy Quran: "And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me." [Surah 51: Ayah 56] this is what the Almighty said.

Our purpose in this life is to recognize The Creator, to be grateful to Him, to worship Him, to surrender ourselves to Him and to obey the laws that He has determined for us. It means worship is our purpose in life. Whatever we do in the course of that worship, [i.e., the eating, the sleeping, the dressing, the working, the enjoying,] between birth and death is consequential and subject to His orders. But the main reason for our creation is worship. I don't think anyone who is analytical or scientific will have much of an argument with that purpose. They may have some other reason with themselves-but that is something they have to deal with between themselves and Almighty God.

Nobody can prove any gods, much less a specific god, exist; many people will tell you their god exists but no others, but will never be able to prove it, even if they think so. Some will threaten you with eternal pain or promise eternal joy to get you to believe in their god; these are all stories, created for people who were scared long before we understood the universe. Now we have no more reason for these superstitions.

How terrible the bible in particular is:

I love Him and He loves me, therefore he died to saved me only to rise again in three days to conquer death for me. Me... the insignificant one in all his creation. Yes he would die for you and me. Even if you and I are the last one, he would still die for you or me. That is what love is..
