To Know God is to Experience Him

Many a times you must have faced different problems. You must have heard people say, " There is no God". You have heard the innumerbale complains people have against God. It is as if they we all are fighting against Him. You must surely have seen people suffering and you must have asked yourself ; if there is God then why is this suffering? You must have lost someone so close to your heart and felt that God could have kept him alive some more time. We keep on blaming God for everything wrong that happens in our life. We want to get everything and want to see that everything goes right with us. But very often we forget that our very existence is due to His grace. We all are aware that our stay on this earth is uncertain. To live is to fight with many unfavourable circumstances. These fights are inevitable for our existence , for they makes us stronger and fit to live.Through this ups and downs still God has blessed you and me.His grace kept us alive. We donot even want to acknowledge the goodnes God showers in our life. When good things happens, we love to put all credit to our side, when bad things happens we blame God. So it stands that we are too selfish. Though we fail to declare His goodness, still God is with us all the time. He doesnot force us to give Him credits. He doesnot demand us to do anything for Him. Since He is ever loving, ever compasssionate God, we take all advantages and blame Him. We want happiness but we donot like to work for it. We want everything of the world but we donot want to take a bit of pain to achieve it. We want blessings but we love to forget the basic principles that brings us closer to the divine attitude and qualifies us for His abudance blessings. Since we never do our duties,we have no authority to blame God. Look at the nature, the nature manifest God's glory. The agents of nature,the sun, the moon and the stars shine and speak of His greatness. The trees with its loveliness declare the goodness of God. The birds chirps about the love of God and of His ever sustaining grace. What are you doing? What am I doing? Are we doing what we are created for?Are we experiencing the existence of God as other created beings does? If not, it is our failure. We may act as if we know God. But if we fail to understand Him and feel His goodness as the nature does. Our attitude towards God will never change.Thus to know God is to experience Him in everything, in every moment and in every steps of our life with the realizatioin that without him, we can do nothing, our existence mean nothing.God is great for all time, from eternity to eternity and those who walk with Him, He will bless them abundantly.Peace be with you
