believing

sometimes it just floors me how people dont believe in God. well, it always floors me, but only when i think about it.

have you ever held a newborn baby? and touched their perfect little fingers and toes? and seen the glow in their perfect tiny faces? you can feel how perfect they are..how can you not believe in God then? how can you believe that this glorious, flawless little being just happened by chance?

have you ever talked to someone and seen nothing but pure charity? seen their goodness-felt their love, radiating out from them to you? it's like, a physical thing. i feel like its smothering me-i cant breathe, but its a happy kind of not breathing. people are SO christlike and have so many divine attributes. i feel so undeserving of their attentions-but how can you believe that those characteristics, those attributes, just appeared there? they just showed up?

have you ever felt the direct power of forgiveness? done something wrong and then felt, like from the crown of your head to the bottom of your heels, that it has literally been washed from you? how can you explain that...its just all in your head?

have you ever taken a look at the colorado rockies? or the beaches in san diego? or the beautiful, bare, exposed land in the queen creek desert? how could you believe that all of those creations, all of those colors, just came together because of the laws of physics? because it just......happened that way?
