I know how you feel. But remember just after Jesus resurrected, the women were the first to see him. When they told the apostles, they didn't believe them. But they were proven wrong. Jesus told them that they shouldn't need to see to believe. Or something similar happened, I'm not too sure. Not seeing, but still believing. Pretty much everyone goes through doubt though, I did.

This is very true. Thomas didn't believe as well. He said, "I will not believe until I see the scars in His wrists, and the hole in His side." But Jesus told Thomas, "Do not doubt just because you do not see Me. Believe. I am always with you." Jesus also told Thomas to stick his finger in His side, and in the scars on His wrists.

You don't see the wind or gravity yet you believe they are true. It's because you feel it and see the affects they have on other people and objects. It's the same way with God. Also believing what you cannot see is the very definition of faith.

Yes believe even though you don't see, for you will be more blessed like the Lord tells us in John 20:29 :

Then Jesus told him, “Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”

If we could see God and Jesus, it wouldn't require Faith. God wants us to live by Faith.

I had the same problem you do. I was very depressed and wanted God to show himself to me so I would know he was real. I reached out to a friend and this is what he told me...look outside at the world around you. Do you really think the world was created by some freak accident like the big bang theory or something like that. The world and every little detail of how it works had to be created by a loving caring God. If he put that much detail into where we would going to live, how could he not care so deeply and greatly for us. Look up at the sky on a day when the sun is out and look at the pattern of the clouds. They so beautiful, like they were painted there by a great artist. God puts so much detail into everything he does, and he puts even more time into us if we are just open to listening and believing in him. When you pray to God, really pray to God, you can feel his love and peace. Go somewhere quiet, without distractions and talk to him. Pour out everything that is on your mind and in your heart. Reach out to him and see if he doesn't fill your heart with his love.

Very well put! The Holy Spirit entered your heart to allow you to speak with the right words to be spoken here. God is always with us. Always!

I'm not the best at talking about God, but I'll do my best:
I know it's pretty hard to believe in God because you can't see him... but you can feel him, like your ;conscience' that tells you to do the right thing, that's God prodding you in the back, telling you to do the right thing, besides he's all around us and you've jut got to have faith that He's there. Without Him... I don't even want to think about it
Well, I'm not sure if that says aything or not, but like I said, I'm not very good at this sweatdrop

Jesus said to him, “Thomas, because you have seen Me, you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”
