I find it hard to completely believe, I also find it hard to admit, I also find it, to do so, a way to relieve, That which deep down I still doubt… Guess I have to think more, Get right down to my inner core, Realize on all levels that He does exist, Doing this is something that for me, I must persist… Still it’s hard for me to totally believe, I have felt this does for me relieve, But then again at other times I am torn, I really believe that I have felt this since I was born… © ed ~ 6/21/11

i agree with Fee and Annabel as well, spirituality had not much to do with organized religion!

I'm with Fee....I don't attend church...because for me organized religion is simply big business.....but faith lives in me and I know He hears me when its just me and Him...we don't need a hundred people around us to converse....You're kool Ed!

Sounds like you need to head to a Buddhist Monastery for awhile and do some chanting.

DID YOU FORGET WHAT YOU WENT THRU? AND SURVIVED!

WAS THAT JUST 'DUMB LUCK'? A LOT OF FOLKS PRAYED TO 'SOMEBODY' FOR YOU!

I was once told by a priest that just because I didn't go to church any more, or believed in organized style religions, I could still have faith and belive in God. I do have faith and do believe in some type of God but just not sure what shape he takes. All I know he is a higher power.

Do you believe if you were on death bed tomorrow that there is a chance for a Doctor to save you, you were there not so long ago. It's called believing.

I guess it depends on what your values are. Some believe, others
believe just before dying and the grief sets in. Good thought provoking gem, Ed.

Yup. Me too, Ed. You covered it all. At least we haven't completely rejected the idea. At least I haven't, and it doesn't sound like you have. Keep on chooglin', you'll figure it out.
