Not because I say so.
Not as a last resort when your world goes to hell.
Trust God
Because He deserves our trust at all times while MAN
deserves our mistrust at all times.
It's really that simple.
But it doesn't happen unless God makes it happen.
Appeal to God to make it happen for you.
We have cookies, too.

I placed dead last in the Subtlety Olympics once again.
Not to worry, you're way out in front in the Paradox Olympics. You want me to pray to a deity I am convinced doesn't exist for the faith to believe in him. Replace "God" with "the Easter Bunny" in your post and you'll see how likely this is to happen.
Lu, half the time you upbraid me for calling you an atheist instead of an agnostic, and now this? You have more position points that Hillary has email servers!
Read my short post again, Lu. Do you really trust Man?
Sure, I trust God more than Man.
But you? Do you really think Man is capable of fixing any of the catastrophes they generate?
Man is a squabbling, fighting, lying enmity machine, full of envy and hatred.
I trust the God I've known for close to 40 years over the Mankind I've seen all of my life.
I include myself in Mankind, though, thanks to God, I've cut down on the squabbling, enmity, etc. Because I am a 'new creation' in Christ, God is refining me and my brother and sisters in Christ so that we become more like Christ and less like the world.
See you on the other side? I hope so!
Just because I don't believe in Christianity according to Doug doesn't mean I believe there's no God(dess)(es). As it happens, in the time we've been doing this I've been leaning more toward atheism, but if I ever did start believing in the supernatural, your style of Christianity wouldn't be where I'd go.
