I've experienced God a lot over the past year in learning to look for and accept His promises.  I don't think I realized before that when He says He won't forsake or fail me, and that He will guide me along the best pathways of my life, He means it.  It takes time, though, and God's action in our lives doesn't always look like what we expect.  I think I'm learning to appreciate that, though.

I've experienced God a lot in the past year, now he has shown me his forgiveness and shows me that there are no lost causes.

Only a few weeks ago, I got a call from my mom back home. One of  my former co workers - a good guy - had gotten in a terrible skateboarding accident, and was now in critical care. It was a sobering thought to think that this poor guy (whom, I believe, didn't know Jesus) could be dead very soon. In fact, all signs said that he would likely die soon. Support gathered as many of his friends on facebook updated their profile pictures to a sketch of him with the words "Go Simon" at the bottom. Prayers flowed toward this young man and his survival.
He has now woken up from the comma and is talking with his family and even controlling his bladder again. He recognized one of his old teachers who came to see him. One nurse says that she has seen countless cases like his, but this is only the second time in her long career that she has ever seen somebody recover so well; so quickly.
Our prayers will continue to flood to him for some time still.

I believe that God is with me at all time. I can see him when I am with my friends, alone, with my family, at church, and doing something good like volunteering in a service project.

So at school there is this one mean girl who is always a jerk to me. One day I totally lost my temper and I called her a b****. I kept worrying all day that she would tell the school authorities. Right before lunchtime, my teacher tells me that he got a phone call telling me to go down to the main office. I said a quick prayer, and reluctantly walked down to the main office, bracing myself for the wrath of the vice principal. As I walk into the main office, the secretary tells me that I forgot my lunch and my mom dropped it off for me.

Isn't god so awesome?

A few years ago, I was riding my bike, crashed, and went over the handlebars. While I was passed out, I saw heaven and met God. I was having some troubles in my life, and reminded me that if I believe, I go to heaven. I woke up, was fortunately unharmed, and found out I was out for a second. Also, I was once under a lot of stress, was freaking out, and when I thought "God loves you", I calmed down.

I...need Bible Accountability! I need someone or something to help me make sure I read some Bible each day! Thanks!
In Him,

I'm doing my best to be pure good rather then to be pure evil but I don't think I'm getting anything out of it so what's the point?They never answer my prayers on the most important things that I mostly like value .I don't I'll ever have a moment to shine in my life.I won't pull away christianity i was skeptic on other religions some i  share the faith with but I'm originally a christian so turning away from a religion is a sin.

I once remember dreaming about seeing god one time. It was when I was about 7 so I don't remember all that much about him. He was surrounded by angels with wings.

I'm going to unstick this since it's just floating up at the top of the forum with no replies *replying with this* in hopes that it will get a reply, otherwise it will just fade away to the next page lol.

I struggle with OCD and anxiety, and have plummeted to rock bottom several times in my life now... Every time I think it's too much though, Jesus has been there like a best friend, snatching me out of the pit. I was skeptical for so long, being raised in a lukewarm catholic home, but one day the Lord just made his amazing presence known to me in such a profound way. I was online searching for testimonies of people who got through struggles with anxiety, and this one women's story caught my eye. Mind you, I was an atheist at this time, but as I continued to read her story of faith and deliverance in Jesus I felt this incredibly sense of warmth and peace surge through my entire body. That's when the scales were removed from my eyes and I knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that God was real. I've been a Christian for a little over a year now, and it's been a learning experience with many struggles and victories. One thing I know is that, if a person sincerely calls upon God, he will always stretch out a helping hand.

AMEN brother! Always happy to see that someone is learning through their walk with Christ. To remind you, however, that it will never be perfectly smooth sailing until we cross that border back into our Home. Then it's time to coast while we praise God for pulling us through! (Using an analogy to demonstrate our arrival to Heaven once we die). The path is narrow my friend. It's loaded with obstacles. Always expect possibilities of doubts and questioning to come your way as well. Take care.

Thanks for the encouragement, mate. It definitely can be a difficult path to walk, and a constant learning experience, but as Jesus said to the apostle Paul: ''my grace is sufficient for you''. In us it is impossible, but if we stay attached to the vine, the Lord will make a way. Peace.
