Believing God

My parents thought me Christian value and Christian ethics and they sent me to a Catholic school during my childhood thats why I grew up believing that there is reall(a)y a graven image. There are forever obstacles in life that makes whiz another question if there is a God out there. I had personal experiences that there is Gods presence. genius question, why do we ask? To whom do we pray? I think this is the best way to fool the presence of God. We pray because we hope in God. The Muslims, Buddhist, Christians, etc. may pack different Gods plainly they believe that there is a God. Gods presence for me is when I pray.Every night, before I go to bed, I always pray for the safety and health of my family and friends. When I wake up and knew everybody is okay, I also pray to thank Him for answer my prayer. Every morning, I al educate feel His presence inside me. Also, when Im feeling sad and depressed, I always ask His guidance and help to resolve my problems. Blessed, He answe red my prayers and most of my problems were resolved. I think we all have different types of relationship with God. Another example about the presence of God is about what my grandmother(who lived with us for 16yrs) told me when she was purify and diagnosed with stage 4 ancer.She told me that every night, every time she sleeps, she always dream of his husband, dead relatives, or sometimes an un screwn man work her. One time, she told me that she dreamed that she was in the sky and an unknown man is calling her to go with her. She told that He was God. Maybe she didnt go with Him many times because she knew that we are not yet ready to let her go with her Creator. For how many days have lasted and we told her that we are ready to accept whatever happens, she linked with her Creator. With her story, I really felt the presence of God and my faith in Him grew stronger. Another influence is from my parents.We take note a green goddess of Christian events. For example, the Holy Week . Our family do Visita Inglesia during Holy Weeks and we do the Stations of the Cross to know more about the story of Gods son, Jesus. I think this influence also helped me to really believe in There are also times that I feel the absence of God. Every time I fail to achieve something, I always blame God. For example, recently I took the BSA Qualifying Exam. not pass the exam. I was so depressed during those times and thought to myself where is God during those times. After how many days, I dumb pray to him to help me ith my decisions in life and He answered my prayers.My parents and friends comforted me, help me decide and told me that it is not the embarrassingly course in college that will make me a successful person. They said that I should work hard and pray hard to resolve my problems. These are the only things(failure) that I feel the absence of God but with these failures, good things happen right away. We can always analyze the presence of God everywhere. For example, w e can see a lot of Holy objects everywhere rosary, pictures, etc. We can also see a lot of people going to Church to pray and ask petitions to Him. Also, why do people avoid to leave sin?Maybe because they believe in Heaven and Hell. They also know that they lose the presence of God when they afford a sin. As long as we try very, very hard not to commit sin, deliberate mortal sin, God is on our side and we are in His Presence. God continues to love us, no matter what, but He hates the sin. God is everything. For what I understand, God created all the things here on Earth. As a conclusion, to feel His presence, we should always pray for Him, have faith, avoid sins, follow the ten commandments, and we should love all the things He had created.
