Finding God

FINDING GOD

Where is God anyway?

This is a common question most people use to ask to themselves and to those who are supposed to have an answer for it. Especially on these turmoiled times in which evil and vice have taken charge and have become the norm, instead of being the exception, to find and know God seems to be an unreachable challenge for many. Moreover, the mere idea of dedicating some time a day to God or to thank him for what we have, both spiritually (if any) and materially (Oh! Very important), is for a vast majority of the people a so unfashionable matter and a total waste of time in the modern era we live in. We claim to seek for peace and practice God’s Commandments and Jesus’ teachings, but instead we seem like taking these very matters for granted as if we’re indeed complying with these norms every time and, just from time to time (more for costume than for real conviction), we go to church, recite a few preset prayers from the back of our memories while wondering around, and then, we feel we did enough to comply with God’s matters.

It seems to be that, for many of us, God is quiet ethereal and unreal in our minds. We might say we believe in Him but inside us, we’re not totally convinced about it. We don’t dare to deny His existence, but we have never seen Him, or heard Him, or touched Him, so we just don’t know what to think or feel about Him. Moreover, many of us only pray to Him when facing any sudden danger, or confronting any big problem, and then, when disgrace arrives, we have the guts to blame Him.

Now, if we are not sure about His existence, then why do we always tend to ask, if not beg for His help and divine intervention?

Do you feel identified with some of the above statements?... No wonder!

As a matter of fact, I wrote all these statements based on my own experience, as one more amongst the great number of people who are striving to stay afloat on an ocean saturated with waves of big lies, misbeliefs, dangerous misconceptions, inviting distractions, and a tremendous amount of confusion and misinformation. This is the closest description of how I used to feel in my venture to look for the truth about God. I never had doubts about His existence and His full authorship in the creation of all things. I have even been taught intensively into the Eastern Catholic faith…but something always was missing. I’ve been instructed according to the organized church on righteous behaviors, codes of conduct, what to do and not to do and the works, but always expecting one of the two classical consequences: The almost unreachable eternal life in heaven, or the totally assured damnation in hell! Definitely not very promising!

If we examine our conscience at this very moment, many of us would realize that we always have many things in our minds, let’s say, problems to solve at home, the burdens at work, situations to handle with some relatives or friends, who do we have or want to meet to, the song we like, the car we want, the money we’d like to have, and many, many other thoughts and feeling we might have, but what about anything related to God? Where, in our set of priorities in life, it is an assigned order number to God, if any?

After having read all this and examine our own thoughts and feelings about it, we realize for sure that many things are missing in our relationship with God: Things we don’t know about, things we don’t understand at all, things that have been said and repeated for years at the service we attend but have no meaning at all to us, things we’ve asked to ourselves sometimes but we’ve never even looked for to find the answer, and many other things related to God that we are too busy to think about. But do we really need to know all these things about God and, Are these things really a concern to us?

Well, the answers to these questions are not in my mind and in my heart, but in yours, but if you want to know what my answers would be, I’ll say with joy that yes, we certainly do need to know and yes, these things are definitely a concern to us!

After all, aren’t we the ones that always think that going to church on Sundays is important, and say that praying may help us, and declare that God exists for sure, and say that God will help us, etc., etc., etc.?

In spite of the evidence, and even after centuries of religious teachings, costumes, traditions and everything else you’d like to add to the list, most of us are as far from understanding and following God as we are able to manage, and the confusion is such that we feel totally discouraged to look for answers.
Notwithstanding, in the middle of all this confusion, there are some clear facts that are still there and we can’t deny. The following is a short list of these facts, just to display a small sample:

1. We exist and live on a Planet that works in an organized way, which is a part of an organized Solar System, which turns around a Huge Galaxy in an organized way, which belongs to an infinite Universe. Just think about this: This much organization and perfection cannot be the result of an unorganized and random Big-Bang; it’s a total scientific non-sense!

2. Nature is quiet perfect, balanced with an astonishing precision, and designed with an unimaginable complexity. Big-Bang again?

3. The human body, is the most perfect biological machine, where millions of different functions work together every second, all of them interrelated and interdependent with each other, and with a complexity which is impossible to duplicate by ourselves. It’s so amazingly designed and structured that, even with our gigantic advancement in human developed technology, we still don’t know or understand many things about it.

4. Our thoughts and feelings govern our daily lives by shaping our actions and behaviors, but we know nothing about how they do their work in our bodies. They both are ethereal (just like God is?), they don’t exist physically but indisputably are the causes of what we are and what we do. We know for sure they exist.

5. Our very existence, which can be perhaps the most tangible fact for us, and this so complex and perfect World with its surrounding Solar system and Universe, cannot be just a product of random chance. As a matter of fact, scientifically speaking, there is no way that so many factors could be all together at the precise moment, at the right place, at an unimaginable exact order, under the very best conditions, to have created everything that we know in the way we know it.

Allow yourself a moment for reflection about the above facts and some others that could’ve come to your mind…

…Now, ask to yourself, do you really think that all the above facts could be possible without the intervention of God?

My answer is NO!...What’s yours?



Given for sure many of us have been victims of a terrible uncertainty about God and everything that is related to Him – His very existence, His creation, His direct and indirect intervention in man’s life, His will toward man’s destiny – it is imperative to put things in order, to start understanding God and His implications in our lives, past, present, and future.

The main purpose of this set of articles is to unveil God to its readers in a more realistic way, by exposing and explaining many issues about this matter that have been distorted, changed, erased, banned, misinformed, and misconceived throughout the last two millennia, and then, exposing and explaining the facts of truth that have been stolen, obscured, ridiculed, and hidden by men themselves about God’s matters.

During the development of this work, the readers might find some facts and explanations disturbing to some degree in accordance with their own beliefs and costumes. As sure as I am that this is going to happen, I invite the readers to stay with me and set yourselves in an open mind mode, so on every point developed in this work, there will be a well supported explanations and references to be used at your discretion. Moreover, the tendency of it is to stay faithful and accurate to the Scriptures - The Bible throughout its Old and New Testaments- since nothing that we must know about our true and right relationship with God has been left out from it. Let’s also understand that when talking about this very serious topic like God and whatever it’s involved with Him, it is very important to support our words with also serious and enough documentation about these matters. In order to fulfill this purpose, the reader could be able to find an extensive list of accurate references, and especially a great deal and emphasis on internet sites and e-documents, since these references are available right at your fingertips from any computer at home, work, college, or wherever you are.

I invite you then to join me in this fascinating journey through the truth that will set us free from all lies, discomfort, confusion and doubts about who is our God Almighty, why and how to totally trust Him and how can we establish a good relationship with Him and thus, receive all the blessings from our Father during our lives and afterwards.


To Him all Praises and Honor forever and ever, Amen.
