I personally don't "subscribe" to any religion. I was brought up Catholic and they really did a number on me.

When I was in therapy, that was a big part of my problem.

For me, when I think of God, (and this may be silly to some) I think of a Father to all. I think of light, and a Being who is ALWAYS at my side, especially when I am in need, which lately seems to be all the time.

He does talk to me, but not in the usual way of "talking." It's more of a sensory thing, but I know He's contacted me. There have been times when I've been in GREAT need, where I've gotten down on my knees and pleaded with Him to come to me, when all of a sudden my whole body has been taken over with this warmth -- something I couldn't understand. I became almost afraid, and I listened -- and while I didn't HEAR anything I knew He had been there and I felt He had answered my prayer.

There is a closeness I feel to God, where I don't necessarily pray to Him. I just talk to Him. You don't have to pray all the tiime. God likes conversation too. That's when you seem to pour your heart out the best. Prayers really don't offer much. They're just recitations. Try conversations, and you'll feel more of a closeness to Him.

I doubt this helped any. I just wanted to let you know how it is for me. God bless and please take care. Hugs, Lee
