I know I am not perfect but I know/believe God Almighty is perfect and that is enough for me to have faith in Him.

To me, god is the one thing that's going right in my life!
In a life of depression, meaninglessness, no real future to look forward to, and a lot of hurt being carried around in my heart, god came into my life, and for the first time, there was something really worth struggling for! I went through crisis's of faith, pain, disapointement, but I still kept trying! Because I had realised that GOD IS WORTH IT ALL, worth all the pain, worth every struggle, worth every hurt, worth dying for!
So I kept trying. I sunk deeper into depression, and god lifted me out of it, suddenly, while I was worshipping, I began to smile. I started laughing, just out of nowhere, for no reason other than joy in god. I KNOW NOW THAT I HAVE PURPOSE AND MEANING AND A BRIGHT FUTURE.
And god is guiding me towards that future.
I was the kid who didn't really talk so good, but now, gods gifted me with a love of writing stuff, and hey someone from this site added me on msn to ask me "are you really 15? i dont believe it! you sorta inspired me!"
I went from wanting to kill myself, to telling others passionatly that their future is bright and that they can do anything.
And I'm still growing in god. I'm still learning. And I am going to do so much better with my life!
Cal, I have to say that your avatar reminds me of noodly appendages :).
You and I are similar. We have had a similar path in our early life. But I never found God, I found my own way out of the dire state that I was in, with the help of friends and family.
Did someone say noodly appendages? I should be offended, but instead, I will link something with "noodly appendages"
Flying Spaghetti Monster - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Yes that's right, THAT! Is in wikipedia.
Yes, that's what I was referring to. ;).
Of course it's in wikipedia, it's notable.
Lol, does cals hair really look like noodles? Really?
If so, I need to give him a new do
Well, blue noodles.
Aaaww dam... cal is crushed!
Next artwork I do, he's going to be crying!
There's nothing wrong with wishing to become one with the noodle...
Cal does not wish to become one with the noodle.
Anyway, I'm the artist, and I am in charge of cal. and I forbid him to become one with the noodle :P
NeedKarma likes the current Cal avatar. Pay no attention to the monkey on a recruiting mission. :)
I am not a follower of the noodle. In fact I cringe when he comes up in posts on this board. I was just pointing out what your avater reminded me of :)
Of course you cringe, because you know the back story as to why that deity was "discovered". :D
I'm much more fond of the Invisible Pink Unicorn (Blessed be her Holy Hooves). She's much less ridiculous, more noble, and fits the same purpose.
Lol, now needkarma thinks that I am talking about myself in third person
Thanks anyway karma :)
I still love you cal!
:) I love you all, hugs all around!
Lol
Would that mean that the godless are totally lacking in goodness? Or do we need to redefine what God is to make him less of a mathematical or semantic issue?Quote:

As I said previously, god is beyong mathematics. You cannot explain him with 1s and 0s and tangenty cosiney things.
