[QUOTE="Aussie Pete, post: 74674478, member: 421731"] The most wonderful thing about being born again is that this life can be wonderful also. I have had troubles of all kinds. The Bible assures us that it is normal. "Failure" is simply our efforts to do the right thing gone wrong. And that is also normal. One day, we wake up and see that our ways are not God's ways. Then we choose His instead. You do not need to "feel" Jesus. Do you ask yourself if you "feel" that your parents are real? Do you "feel" like the taxi driver is real? No, you see him and you know that he is real. You need spiritual eyesight, aka faith. You need God to remove the spiritual blindness that closes the Bible to you. Ask Him to give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation. Just a friendly word of advice. If and when you receive the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, you do well to obey what you read. The more we know, the more accountable we are. Having said that, it is the only way to live. In November last year, I had a heart problem. I was in emergency and the thought crossed my mind that it could be my last day on earth. I was not afraid at all and I had the deep assurance that the next life is better than this. But I have unfinished business here, so I don't get to go home just yet. Throw yourself on God's mercy, cast all the cares this life on Him and ask Him to deliver you. He loves you. He has helped everyone who asked Him ever. He will help you. Oh, and be willing to swallow whatever medicine He prescribes. It may not taste nice but it will do the job. [/QUOTE]
