It is so nice to hear all these young Christians speak up for the Lord and give your reasons for believing. I just cannot imagine the joy that must be in Heaven due to your witness.

I can remember many years ago dropping my daughter off at Baylor University as a freshman (Baptist college in Texas for those who might not be familiar) and going to an orientation class for the parents. What they basically told us was that we brought our children there to put them in the "Baylor bubble" so they would believe what we had told them all their lives & that that would not happen. They would question everything we had told them & learn to believe by questioning God's very existence and come out stronger Christians than they would have ever been by just accepting what we told them.

So it thrills my heart to hear that you have examined and formed your own beliefs and met God for yourself. God is not afraid of our questions.

I kind of thought these were known but I guess not.

I also have an article on a list of 6 things that prove there is a God
it is SCIENTIFIC which is what drew me to it, and I definitly believe God brought that article to me because I prayed and prayed for him to help me, because I was having trouble being MYSELF (factual) and believing.

I really encourage you to read this
I enjoy discussing things (my boyfriend says I like to argue, but I point out that there's a difference)
so I researched religion because I knew my family would fight me on this
and ask me why I wanted to believe

(of course my reply is "i don't WANT to believe, I DO believe" my entire family is agnostic or athiest, except for my aunt and her husband)
