A loving all powerful creator? That's a rather large escalation. All I hear is silence, always have, even when I believed.

what exactly did you believe? Did you get your spirit tuned in with God's Spirit? This is God's ways.Or were you still looking for man's ways? I believe in the Lord yet i will honestly say I have never heard an audible voice with my physical ears speaking to me to say that is the Lord, I know when my conscience/spirit speaks to me it is from God, for God is good and it is always something good be it a conviction or a correction, or a revelation of what he is to me and what I am in Him, it is always for good, that is my proof there is a God. Yet I also know that if I were to do more in seeking Him, I would have more revelations of Him. Know you must seek Him through prayer, worship, spirit, reading and meditating on His Word, it is a daily living not when I feel like it, or else Im going to get how much or how little I put into the Lord. So each to their own, but never is there a no loving all-powerful creator, for there surely is:)

Who is it that is aware of the Silence? How silent are you talking about? If there is any perception, inight, any perception or idea, then there is not silence. If there are thoughts, Who is it that is aware of thoughts? If there is silence, Who is it that is silent? You cannot put a finger on God; as soon as you think you have found Him you have lost Him. Bring back the silence by asking yourself, Who is it that is aware of the silence? The answer will come ,"I am"; then ask, Who am I? and keep asking, Who am I?



You are not the body and not the mind. You are not the emotions. The answer is wordless and it is the awareness, "I Am".



When Moses asked God for His Name, God said "Iam". The Hebrew characters, "Yod, He, Vav, He; mean "I am" Every time you read in the Old Testament the word, "LORD" the meaning is "I am". Every time you read Yahway, The Hebrew characters are Yod he vav he, and mean I Am.



Psalm 46: 10,Be still, and Know that I Am, God." Isaiah 26:3 "Thou will keep him in perfect Peace whose mind is stayed on thee, because He trusts in Thee." when one focuses on one word such as Jesus, Father, Yahway; there is only the one word and silence.



In the 23rd Psalm when the original Hebrew is translated as, "He leadeth me beside the still waters, He restoreth my soul," That can just as accurately be translated as, "You lead me by the waters of stillness that restores my soul." Water in the Bible often symbalizes the Holy Spirit.



Jesus said, My Peace I give you, the peace that THE WORLD DOES NOT KNOW because it transcends the mind.."



I hope i have quoted a scripture that has been helpful to you.

Good Question. Here comes all the answer's of why they think "they are better and worth more".



"God is always in our ears", "and all over our body" OKkkAY ---> So this God the Whisperer sounds like a jerk because YOU say mean spirited things" Do you christians know this, how you sound ?



I don't tell people they are "worthless" and are going to a place called "hell" so cherry pick all you wish guys. What you believe is 2 faced....is why i don't believe it!
