A multitude of blessings to you. And remember, God doesn't want religion, He wants a relationship.

He just let you know that He's your friend, and that He cares. Always, regardless of how distant He may seem, trust Him. He never leaves.

Thank you for the link and the reading suggestions, I will definitely follow-up. I can't wait until a good friend of mine gets home from Church tonight. He is a born-again Christian and he will be ecstatic when I tell him.

Great story! Thanks for telling it. I asked Jesus for help at the lowest point in my life and he put his arms around me. I felt them around me and that was the most amazing moment of my life.

Jesus actually 'bottles" that Peaceful feeling thing....it's called Prayer....and you did it...."Ask and you shall receive"..."Seek and you shall find", I hope you go to Church Sunday to Thank HIM FORMALLY.

God has a plan. When we turn our lives over to him, it is amazing what he can do.

I wish you well friend. But be warned that not all will go so easy. You have an adversary (Satan) that goes around like a lion seeking whom he will devour.Read the book of Job and you will see what men of God are dealing with. It is the same now as then. Through prayer you can overcome what life will throw at you. Ask the Holy Spirit to guide you whither God leads and to sustain you. Peace.

That is truly a miracle. I am very happy for your friend.

I was trying to start a little business on the side, which wasn't doing well. I also had a call from my actual first customer today. (It was that bad, really.) I offered to fix his computer and told him that I just wanted to help, and if he felt like paying me it was okay, but I didn't want his money. (He just needs me to set his AOL up for him.) I don't know this man, but I just felt like giving. I am going over to his house this weekend. I really don't care if he pays me or not. He was my first customer, and probably my last.

I think God was trying to tell me something, I can't explain it. I need to show up to church Sunday. I think God had personally taken care of me and my family. He put his hand on my shoulder and reassured me. I am forever grateful.

Yes, I believe you've experienced the peace that passes all understanding. I'm very happy to hear your good news.

My saying God is real won't convince anyone convinced He isn't, but He is real. Congrats on the new job.

Just one more thing. Find yourself a Bible believing church. Doesn't matter what "religion" it is so long as it based in the Bible. When you find that church, you'll experience the same peace you experienced when praying for that job.

That happened to me too! I had been just diagnosed with cancer. I was sitting in the recliner chair just as down as I've ever been. I felt His arms around me and the words to the 23rd Psalm went through my head. I'll never forget it.

How wonderful.

Keep talking to Him, constantly every day and listen closely, He will tell you what to do. Just turn everything over to Him and have faith.

Everyting tastes better when you have a job after being unemployed. Even beer.
