I can feel God's guidence at different times and in different ways in my life. I can feel His presence with me. I feel His comfort, support, compassion, and strength. I also feel His chastizement at times. I can honestly say that I have never felt any of these from tea leaves or crystal balls.
If you truely want to experience God at work in your life as I do, and feel His presence as I feel it, you can. It's up to you, but you have to experience God in His way.
BTW, we don't have millions of dollars flowing into our church. We are a small (75 member) church who are struggling to pay to have some renovations made. |

What you're saying is nothing that the practitioners of thousands of dead religions and superstition throughout time have said. The human brain is a marvelous pattern seeking machine and will contrive all manner of things out of random noise.
It's breathtaking how strong this feature is in between our ears.
But really, Abel. I have gone the path you've gone. I sought God and didn't find him out there. It wasn't until I realized that We were One that I really understood the truth of the divine. That's when I truly understood Jesus' message and I became Christ.
