To The Non-Believer

In every believer's life there has been moments of doubt. You question if God really exists, If God is alive then how could these things be happening to me, happening to the world? I have been in situations that made me question God too. I have been in a situation where I needed somewhere to stay and a married couple in the church offered me a place across the street from them. When I would not sleep with the husband he sold the house and was going to put me and my kids in the street. I questioned God because how could he put us in the position to be homeless over sex. If this man goes to church and is married why does he keep trying to sleep with me and his wife is just across the street? And while all this was going on I had lost the best I had in my life and he was even offering money to sleep with him. I refused to go to church, I did not like men at that time and I didn't understand. The main lesson that I learned was that the lady across the street just prayed for a husband. She did not specify to God what qualities she wanted, and was not specific at all. She was very general in her prayers. Since, then I have learned to be very specific with God when I talk to him and pray for things. I would not want a husband like that. Maybe, the reason you are a non-believer is because you haven't gotten real with God. You haven't shared your wants or your desires. Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Psalm 37:4 KJV. It might not be when you expect it but it will be at the right time. Whatever your desire my be. Business, money, kids, marriage, or anything that would delight him. Maybe, the reason you don't believe is because you have never given him a chance. There are many people that love God, grow with him everyday, and pursue him relentlessly but at one point in their life they questioned God too. God showed them and me the glory in which only he can do. Things in my life have happened and they seemed good when it happened but it was only leading up to something Great. God has a plan and his plan involves you. You just need to let go and let God. I have a picture of a bumper stick that I saw one day at church and it says "Give God A Chance, The Devil Will Always Take You Back". So, true. One more thing I always thought that If someone wasn't educated in the Lord or did not know about him that they would go to heaven. I found out that they will go to Hell. That is why it is our job to save as many as we can. To the non-believer I don't want you to go to Hell. I want you live an eternal life in Heaven with me and all the other people they you love and all the people that you will get to know in the future.
