Okay then.
Meanwhile, I know God exist inasmuch as I know I exist and that other people I encounter in real life also exist. I also know he cares about me in a similar way that I know other people who are close to me care about me. For me to say I’m not certain God exists would be in the same argument of positing that I don’t really exist nor any of my family or friends.
Do you believe you’ve been singled out by God to be cared for?
I wouldn’t use the phrase “singled out.” Cared for, yes. But singled out? In a way, yes. In a way, no. It’s not that I’m super special. I mean, why me? But then again, maybe I am to Him. Maybe everyone is to Him.
And to say “I believe in God because he’s been good to me before” as you put it sounds so… banal. There’s much more to it that that. It’s much deeper and more meaningful. And there are real things that have and do happen to me and people I know.
Maybe I am special to Him. Because He’s not just God, He’s my Father. And Jesus is not just my savior, He’s my friend.
