Christianity????
All my life I have believed in God and never really knew why. Now that im older im starting to think more and more about the whole thing? Does it seem possible? Sometimes i feel like it isnt. I really want to believe in, but forcing myself to isnt helping. I hate the line in the bible about the begining when God say And it was so. It just makes it seem so fake like there is no other explination except for And it was so? Sometimes I honestly think the whole concept of God and Heaven and Hell were made up to make ppl be good or at least encourage them to be. Like when your a little kid and your parents tell you to be good or the boogey man is going to get you. They know that he isnt real but they tell u that in order to make you be good. Then there is Santa...be good and santa will bring you presents. They know there isnt a Santa but they tell you that to get you to be good.  I think all of the were combined to form christianity. Its a good concept to make ppl be better ppl in order to get somthing and not be punished.  I mean if there wasnt somthing promised in return for believing in him that so many ppl would? Do most ppl just go along with it b/c it is so commonly accepted. I really and truly want to believe there is a God, but sometimes i think its like wishing there were a Santa

Of course, no one wants to go to hell, so, that in itself is often motivation enough, for one to begin their search for God. But, as with any other relationship, the more time you spend with God (praying and reading His Word, the Bible), the more you come to 'know' God and 'feel' Him. One day, you realize that you have begun to love Him....that becomes your priority or motivation in living for Him.....then, there is no more doubt as to whether or not there is a God.....you will know.

Meanwhile, Just believe. It's that simple. Without Him, you will face so many things alone when you don't have to. Just take a look outside on a beautiful day and see His creation. As Alice says - you will know. I don't think there is a Christian alive who hasn't had doubts, but then again God gave us free will. Sometimes it all seems too much and then you receive a blessing and you realise - it's all true! Blessings to you
