Need the Lord,
I had a thought a while ago. Someone posed the question to me "Would it hurt anyone if they didn't believe?" I started thinking about what it'd feel like if I didn't believe and I got scared. I don't scare that easily. The only time I'm scared is when I worry about something or someone. A friend posted a message on myspace desparatly asking for prayer. That kept me up till 4 am crying and praying and worrying. That scared me. I start college soon and paying for it is more than I can afford. That kept me worried and sick to my stomache for a long time. I was scared for my future and everything I wanted. But this, this that I felt about not being with God I was scared for my life.
Maybe God is a safety net or a crutch, but if it keeps my head above water I'm willing to trust it. I've seen nothing else that might even come close to providing the comfort and joy that my God does. It doesn't exist. Nothing else in the universe can provide what I've felt and experienced.
It does hurt people not to believe, but you don't know that until you've lived with God.
