Encountering Christ is a result of the Holy Spirit's movement within the soul of a person. People encounter Christ every day, I believe, but those that are seeking for these encounters and are faithful to the relationship created as a Christian are the ones most impacted by these encounters. I often find myself not giving enough credit to God, though, shrugging off occurrences as just the "way things are." I know I am challenged to faithfully trust God has His hand in my every living moment, and learning this and using this wisdom is when we gain the most from our encounters. Sometimes, things are abrupt, in your face, like the conversion of Saul. But just as amazing is the belief of a child in a small church or that I woke up today. My proof is that I live for Him.
Perhaps one of the reasons I do not think there is a God is because, of my own situation. You see, I really do not feel as if I have had a choice in the matter as far as believing in superior beings. I have always found too many holes in the idea and thought it far more likely that God was a creation of the human mind to keep itself at ease. But, as I have been atheist for a while, this thought was added to my reasoning. Why would a God not want me to believe in him? It doesn't make much sense to me, but hopefully, I'm supposed to be atheist according to his plan, and he might save a spot in heaven for me anyway.I don't really believe it, but it would be better than not existing when I die.
But, more importantly, Brawl is going to be SWEEEEETTTT . . .
