It's
all about seeking and finding God. If you are willing to look
then you will find God. We believe we can help in your search.
Read the articles below, meditate on the content and be open-minded.
Finding God is not hard. Remember - you are not alone.
WHERE?
Where
exactly can you find God? This is a great question and one
you may have asked. Is God in a church? Or is He on the mountaintop?
Somewhere up in the heavenly domain?
If you accept that God is omnipresent then by that definition
God is everywhere. If you are seeking in earnest you will
certainly be finding Him. That is because God responds to
all who seek Him.
It is His desire that we all know Him and His infinite love.
We
believe you can experience God in many places. You'll sense
His presence in the beauty and wonder of nature, in the sanctuary
of places of worship and during times of tragedy and sadness.
Hopefully you will come to recognize His presence in the fellowship
of other believers. Jesus said, "Wherever two or more are
gathered in my name, there I will be".
It can be very helpful to get around others who have a belief
in God and spend time with them. Sharing on an honest level
helps each of us to think about our ideas and beliefs. Try
spending time with others in a church, small group or ministry,
or a support group. Many seekers have felt the presence of
God in such gatherings.
We mentioned in How to find God that deep
down in us all is the fundamental idea of God. It's programmed
into us. We are made in the image of God, therefore we have
inside us that basic belief in our Creator. It is discovering,
or uncovering, this belief that can be the challenge. Can you
be completely honest with yourself and open-minded enough to
be willing to consider the existence of God? If you can, then
we believe you are on your way. Look inside you, beyond your
self-centeredness, beyond your fears and beyond your ego. Do
you sense something there? Can you hear the still small voice?
There
are two crucial facts each seeker must agree on: God exists;
I am not God. Come to believe and you will soon grow aware of
God's presence and the evidence of His existence. It is all
around you, but there is something that will always block you.

"Once, having been asked by
the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, Jesus replied,
"The kingdom of God does not come with your careful observation,
nor will people say, 'Here it is,' or 'There it is,' because
the kingdom of God is within you"
