To: Sungirl
The knowledge of God is within her. Her heart yearns to feel connected to her Creator, yet her sinful nature revolts against the idea. Ask her to find a place to be alone and quiet, without distractions. Have her then start speaking out loud to God. Even if she doesn't believe, tell her to just start a conversation and let it run for a minute or two. When she is in a place where there is no chance of ridicule or embarrasment, she will start to sense that she needs to unburden her heart. She won't know why, but she will suddenly believe, if even for a moment, that God is listening to her.
