There are a few individuals in my life who don't believe in God. This, to me, is almost hard to believe. God is as real to me as the air I breathe, the water I drink, the food I eat, etc. The fact that everything around me is just an accident is almost mind blowing to me. We all just HAPPEN to be born and we just HAPPEN to die. All of us. No, sir, that seems almost impossible to me.
When people have problems, they usually need guidance. They want SOMETHING to help them out. When I have a problem, I turn to God. Not always, like I should, but I try to. I've had "extreme" problems in my life. It's safe to say they were all ended/worked out, because of God.
When people come to me with problems, I try to give them my own advice, at first. But, then, I realize, that's not really my place. So, I usually tell them to pray for guidance, for help. God knows it all. However, telling someone something is far different than them all ready knowing it. You must TELL God your problem. Don't just expect Him to fix it, because He knows.
This brings me back to why I was talking about people who didn't believe in God. When an atheist comes to me for help, I'm not really sure what to say. I can't say pray, because they may be offended, thought that hasn't really stopped me before. And, honestly, I don't give the best advice. I'm lost in that position. In cases like this, I must pray for that person's problem to be ended/worked out, because they don't know that the Lord can help them.
However, Christians have this same problem. We must remember: THERE IS NO PROBLEM TOO BIG FOR GOD. I think, often times, us Christians forget that God is GOD. He's powerful, all knowing, all seeing... He created you and I. He knows everything about us. Often times, when I have a problem, I simply stress out about it. I think to myself: "I really don't have time to pray, this is just too much!" You just want it to go away, but it won't.
When I pray, my problems seem to smooth out. Sometimes, they don't smooth out in the best possible ways, but they do. Your prayers will be answered. Never be ashamed to go to God. Don't be shy. He loves you, and besides, He all ready knows it, you might as well tell Him, to show that you love Him.
Jesus loves you. He really does. Speak to Him.
