No one but God can show you the way. Pray and ask Him, and you shall receive.
Originally posted by Nicolaas So if you talked to Him, did you really believe He was there?
I gave him the benefit of the doubt for those moments. It didn't seem to matter. Apparently I must have an unwavering belief in his existence before I get any of his cool superpowers. Is that right?
Superpowers - i.e. Talking to the almighty God himself, having him favour me in granting my needs over the billions of underpriveleged, starving and dying people on Earth, the ability to move mountains and accomplish anything, etc.
Originally posted by darvlay Okay, I took your advice and tried again:
darvlay: God, it's me again. I meant to say "What is Heaven?"
God: (silence)
darvlay: Oh, forget it.
Are you guys having any better luck than me at this? What am I doing wrong?
Not much (except maybe a tad too much impatience).
What you did just now was to talk to God as a person, communed with Him. That's what Heaven is all about - only infinitely more magnified (a perfect communion with God).
And God was not silent - He sent Nicolaas and me, didn't He? 🙂

He did?! God must not be very smart to have sent that bumpkin Nicolass to speak on his behalf. Does he often send subordinates on fool's missions? 😛
