7. Question
I was seeking very earnestly reading the Bible, I was confused because of the cult teaching, it disagreed with so many things in the Bible. I got fed up and threw the Bible on the floor and said enough. But God was not through with me, before I got up I asked him “Are you really there?” I was not expecting anything but my heart leaped, I knew that was his answer.
