A few years ago, I thought everything was going great.  I had just gotten married, and we had recently moved into a new house.  I thought I was right where God wanted me.\n\nThen it happened.  The company that my father and I were working on building together lost its largest client and, with that client, went 40% of its revenue.  Obviously that was a major blow, and it threw our life into a major upheavel.  In order to help supplement our income, my wife stopped working for me and went to work for our church full time, and I started working there part time a few months later.\n\nI began to feel like God was telling me something, but I didn't want to pick up my life, go back to school, and start a new career when I finish school at 36.  Then at a Christmas Eve service, the pastor preached a sermon about how the wise men were late, but it was never too late to do what God is calling you to do.\n\nSo, I prayed and told God that I needed to know for sure that he was calling me to do this, and within a few weeks, I was hit with even more financial difficulty.  The lesson here is:  be careful what you pray for; you just might get it.\n\nSo, I decided that I would do what I felt God calling me to do and started looking at schools.  I ended up at The Divinity School at Wake Forest University, which was not my first or even second choice.\n\nI won't say that everything has been perfect, but everything has worked out to get me where I am now.  The house we bought had appreciated enough in value for us to be able to pay cash for the small condo we live in now, etc.\n\nIn the end it came down to this.  I KNEW that God was calling me into the ministry, I had no doubt about it.  I think the majority of people are sure.  They may argue with God about it, like Moses who basically responded "Here am I, send Aaron."\n\nIf I could sum it up, I guess I would say if you have significant doubts that you are being called into ministry, you probably aren't.

I think God/Nature protects most of us from knowing the things we cannot handle, but I seek all the answers I can find. Tell me! Show me! Teach me!

man, i feel bad for you. you're playing on the wrong team. God is so real. it seems like everyday he's proving himself (to me anyway). i mean there are times i look back and it could have only been God that got me through. God gives me peace, protection, and he is a great provider. My first year in college I didn't have a job or a dime to my name, but God made a way for me. He made is so that I was never hungry, and that I never wanted for anything. to you God might be an "invisible friend" but for me he is my best friend. the bible is a guide that tells us how to live. and if people live right they dont have to fear God. he gave his only son for us, do you really think that he wants to destroy us? to cripple us with fear? No, thats not him, he is loving. I'm sorry if you feel that God has failed you, or that he's not real, because you're missing out.

Who taught you that ?

I was a passenger in my car going down the interstate. My husband was driving bad and I complained a few times. Finally I asked "why is it that just because you are the man, you always drive us? Why don't you just pull over and let me drive." \n\nHe agreed and pulled off at an exit and we changed at the gas station. I had only been driving a few minutes when I got this voice in my head that said "pull over and let Charley drive." I excused it as my own weird thinking and kept going. I then heard it again "Pull over and let Charley DRIVE" . \n\nBy then, I knew God (or his angels) were telling me this. I became upset about it because I thought I was being taught a lesson of submission which I didn't want to learn. I argued with God in my head. A third time, I heard "PULL OVER AND LET CHARLEY DRIVE." \n\nAt that point, I asked my husband "where should I pull over because I don't know why, but God is telling me to let you drive?"\n\nCharley said to just pull to the top of the ramp and we would switch out there. We did so and he pulled back onto the ramp. but no sooner than we got up to speed, we had to stop in the middle of the interstate. There had been a major collision. We sat for about 3 hours and watched news hellicopters, life line, and all kinds of emergency vehicles ahead of us by like a mile. When we finally got through we saw a 3 car collision had happened and they were mangled. There had been deaths. \n\nI knew right away it hadn't been about submitting to my husband at all, but about God or his angels letting me know of the danger ahead. I ws sure glad that I had been prayed up and reading the bible or I may have missed his voice.

The most important lesson is that God put them on this earth for a reason. We were all put here for a reason. To serve for the Lord.

All the time!  I've especially learned to lean on him in the last 2 years since my husband and I split up.  I've especially felt it through the people God has put in my life that have helped me through it.  There have been some really low times, but God has always come through. Sometimes He takes you right to the point where you don't think you can take it any more, then when He answers your prayers just in the nick of time, you realize He was there all along.  But your faith is stronger because of the struggle.  It's like exercising.  When you first start, it hurts, and you're sore all the time.  But if you stick with it it gets easier and you get stronger, and soon it doesn't hurt any more. I know I'm much stronger spiritually than I was 2 years ago.

Yes, there is God and YES I have SEEN him. I saw him in the eyes of my son, the second he was born. Then I saw God again on the day that very same son hung himself in our backyard. God was there as I struggled to hold my son up with one arm and to reach above his head to untie the knot from the post with my other. God was there as I screamed for someone to help me. God stood beside me as I did CPR on my 14 year old son's lifeless body for 10 minutes until the paramedics arrived. I also saw God in the eyes of the Life Flight nurse that told me and my wife that we couldn't go with him on the helicopter but that she wouldn't leave his side until we got there. When we got to the hospital... there was God holding my son's hand. Before we left for the hospital I made a frantic call to my sunday school teacher and said we were going to the hospital and that my son was hurt badly. We live a major city with a major medical center. There are about 12 different hospitals in a 5 mile radius. When I finally walked into the emergency room waiting area, again God was there and so was my sunday school teacher. The Drs. told us that my son wasn't brain dead but they could tell how bad the damage was until he regained consciousness, if he ever did, I saw God in my wife's eyes at 3:25 am when the nurse came out into the ICU waiting area some 18 hours after this ordeal had begun and said that my son was waking up. And God was there in my son's hospital room when he opened his eyes at 3:38 am bewildered, confused, unable to talk because of the intabation tube in his throat and very scared. \n\nI will tell you this so that here is no question in anyone's mind for all eternity. On that day... in that room ... I SAW GOD IN THE EYES OF MY SON..... AGAIN. \n\nON THAT DAY I WITNESSED A MIRACLE.\n\nmy son was dead. I checked for a pulse there was none. I gave him CPR alone for at least 7-8 minutes before the para's got there. My son has no memory of what happened. Even the Drs. were amazed that he didn't have even the slightest amount of lasting ropeburn on his neck, other than what looked like a sunburn.  \n\nHave I seen God? I see him every morning at the breakfast table. and I love him more than anything else in this world.

Everything is predefined in the sence that God knows what will happen, but you are still free to do as you please.  However just remember that God is one step ahead of you trying to get your attention and guide you.  Seeing as how he knows everything he's the best guide!
