First of all let me ask you have you ever wondered the existence of God?, I grown up in a very conservative and religious family, We have to pray every morning when we woke up, Pray when we eat breakfast,Pray before going to our farm, pray before going to School, pray before eating lunch,and pray before eating dinner, everywhere we go we has to pray so the guardian angel will be with us all the time, and we always go to church every Sunday,I can’t remember that we ever missed one sunday, thats how we brought up with our very devoted mother, She is a church choir leader and a worship leader as well, when i was a kid, My Dad play guitar while I sing for the congregation.My father was different he is not very religious and he go out with friends sometimes and drink. He go to church with us but just for the sake on going with my mother i guess. But my father is a very hardworking Dad, but very disciplinarian, So we have to be a good kid otherwise you will have a taste on my father’s really thick belt.My mother on the other hand is different she is very sensitive woman who could not even raise her hand to his kid’s. We are seven Siblings but they brought us up with morals and dignity. But even so we are poor we are always reminded by our parents that the riches is not about materials alone but its about being a good follower of God.
Now let me ask you again? have you ever wondered the existence of God, Does God really do exist? Is there really God up there in the Universe? Some people say, You can’t prove that their is God,But also we can’t prove that God doesn’t exist?This question has been on my mind as a grow up, during those tough times we had, My Dad was really sick, and my Mum was sick as well, We really have nothing, We couldnt eat, And I was only 8 or 9 years old at that time. My father almost died at the time. In that age i was so devastated looking at my parents suffers.I started to pray asking God, why? I pray and pray and pray, But nothing happen, We start asking for food in our neighbors just to survive, That was during El-Nino our farm couldn’t produces foods due to the hit We have no rain for months,All our crops died, Until such time i told my mum, I don’t think there is God ” Ma” God doesn’t exist, you just fooling yourself for ages, We serve him all our life, yet he could not help us during this time. If he is so powerful why can’t he heal you both. My mum said he is just testing us my son, how strong our faith for him. I told my mum since you are a kid you are already serving God so that is not enough to prove your strong faith on him? My mum said, we are human, we make mistake, We sinned, we are not perfect,And Satan is always ready to attack us. God didn’t give us this illness satan does, and God will always test how strong we are,God won’t give us trials we can’t overcome, So now you better kneel and pray, keep your faith up high my son, Me and your father will be fine, Okay? I couldn’t say anything i just cried. As i grow up we have so many challenges and trials we’ve encountered but none of them we haven’t overcome.There was those time that we lost our home, we lost everything, Its another trials that test our faith from God, We started from the scratch again, yet we always overcome all those test.
We question ourselves that is there really God? But if we try to open our eyes around us, That is enough evidence that there is God, The Sun that give us light, The grass, The fruits and plants the provide us food, The animals, The mountains and the water, That should be enough evidence the existence of God,So if are still doubtful try considering this,Living things are evidence that God exists.Everything in this planet didn’t happen by accident, They happen with a reason, They happen by creation,Try to think of it, For example all those attraction we’ve seen somebody created them. The Pyramid of Egypt, The great wall of China, The Taj mahal, They are being designed and being made, So How does Planets, Stars, Oceans, Trees, Mountains, Animals, of most of all human being made? You couldn’t say they are just happen by accident, There must be powerful being who made them.They are being plan, They are being designed according to its purpose,So Believing God is really hard but it takes strong faith to do so.But Its even harder not to believed that God doesn’t exist.There must be powerful being who designed for all the living things.
Read the passage of Psalm 19:1 ”The heavens declare the glory of God, The Skies proclaim the work of his hands” Genesis 1:1 ” In the Beginning, God created the heaven and the earth.. Isaiah 44:24” I am the Lord who makes all things, Who stretches out the heavens all alone.Who spreads abroad the earth by Myself .The Humanity itself , The Human existence is the fulfillments of God existence.
