Often, I see posts on here that make me think that people refuse to believe in God because he doesn't get involved in every detail. "If God was real, why doesn't he stop..."
I'm going to use some examples here.
I think about a recent video game that came out where a person could become a God. If that God did everything for everyone, then the people became lazy and expected God to them and to get them out of problems.
Do you feel that for God to be worshipped or to even exist, he must satisfactorily answer every single prayer that is uttered, or that he must pull miracles out of of his magic hat in order to believe in him? If he doesn't, then he's not worthy of respect?

I believe that God is, in one sense, very interested in micro-management of our personal lives but only to the extent that we will allow him to be involved. We do choose our own destinys by the choices that we make in life. The more that we die to self,in pursuit of his will, the more we will recognize him.

God answers every prayer. He either says yes or no. People thingk that God doesn't exist becouse he doesn't answer every prayer the way they want him to. If he did then we would be controling him and that is not a very good God if you just control him like a servent. God is the King of kings and Lord of lords who rule little nations on the Earth. He wants to rule the earth withan Iron fist. If you were to read the Holy Bible you would have no answers religoius realated go un answered. Our pastor just had open heart surgery and we all didn't want this to happen becouse of the chanses of him dieing. But we had a guest speacker from the near by North Land Baptist Bible Coledge and preached on how his 10year old son whitnessed to some people and they got saved and how it just takes one person to make a world of a difference and our pastors son isn't a kid any more so the topic wouldn't have sparked his mind. If some thing doesnt seem to be going your way it says in the Bible that all things happen for a reason.
Alittle joke we have at chruch is B.I.B.L.E. Basic Instruction Book for Life on Earth.

We choose our own destiny out of free will. However, since God knows the future and the choices we will make, he has the consequences and benefits set up ahead of time.

some times I wish he would be a micro-manager but that wouldn't take care of the reason we are sent here. we are given a free will and I am thankful for that. in having a free will I am allowed to learn from my mistakes and that makes me a much stronger Christian

no. God gave us free will to make our own decisions. its not realy loving or praising him if we are forced to. we have to choose to, to be sincere

We shouldn't choose our own destiny because we wouldn't get it right!!
