I believe in God. One would have to claim absolute truth to call denial. I believe that many people have indeed experienced God in their lives, me included.
I agree with that. We cannot fully know or understand God in this life. We can feel/sense his presence within our hearts or from without - spirit/divine consciousness in nature and in the mysteries of the universe. We are given so much grace and so many blessings and gifts every day of our lives - but, how much do we appreciate them? What more do we want? God will always be a mystery to our mortal minds. Once that is accepted, one can then realize a sense of peace and returning home. Forget about the "what if's" and the pretty, sweet wrappers around the latest self-fulfillment teachings. There is nothing new under the sun.
