For a second, humour me and imagine.

What if you didn't think your God had the power to heal, give riches, after life/give immortality, protect etc etc what if it was never written in your religious books you read since you were a kid that he could give you all that.

What if you weren't afraid that without your God your life would suddenly become a train wreck and nothing would ever work out for you. That everything you thought you could achieve with your God you could achieve anyway without him/her.

What if you didn't feel like you were betraying the trust of your god/ father, and he was cool with you not believing in him and he wasn't going on to harm you in anyway, would you still love him/her as much as much as you do now? Be truthful to yourself. If you wouldn't even just a little bit, then is that really love or you just being afraid of the consequences of not loving

If you still would though, then what would your relationship be like with your God? What would you talk about with someone that doesn't talk back, remembering that it is fine not to talk to this person, that you would be fine.

How long would you keep that relationship up knowing that this person wouldn't do anything for me and doesn't even talk back. If you would keep talking to your God expecting nothing back then kudos to you, you are one of the few people who have found true love even though psychiatrist/ every sane person would call you crazy.

If not then, it might not be crazy to say you love your God for what he could do for you, which is fine. It is basic nature to survive. That is just you logical mind doing what it thinks it has to do to survive subconciously.


This trails back to the old age question of why religion was created, what it is. What if it was created to make us live in fear

WHAT IF!

give me some minutes to respond to your foolishness, in the mean time take, read this below

Psalm 14 King James Version (KJV)
14 The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.



What if you're right?
And he was just another nice guy
What if you're right?
What if it's true?
They say the cross will
Only make a fool of you
And what if it's true?
What if he takes his palace in history
With all the prophets and the kings
Who taught us love and came in peace
But then the story ends
What then?
But what if you're wrong?
What if there's more?
What if there's hope you
Never dreamed of hoping for?
What if you jump?
And just close your eyes?
What if the arms that catch you,
Catch you by surprise?
What if He's more than enough?
What if it's love?
What if you dig,
What if you dig
Way down deeper
Than your simple-minded friends
What if you dig?
What if you find
A thousand more unanswered questions
Inside That's all you find
What if you pick apart the logic
And begin to poke the holes
What if the crown of thorns is no more -
than folklore that must be told and retold
But what if you're wrong?
What if there's more?
What if there's hope you
Never dreamed of hoping for?
What if you jump?
And just close your eyes?
What if the arms that catch you,
Catch you by surprise?
What if He's more than enough?
What if it's love?
You've been running as fast as you can
You've been looking for a place you can land so long
But what if you're wrong?
What if you jump?
And just close your eyes?
What if the arms that catch you,
Catch you by surprise?
What if He's more than enough?
What if it's love?

The same bible says Life is Vanity and a chasing after the wind.

All these above you listed are more or less the vanities of life.

Only God brings meaning into it for me .

The Struggles, The Pain, The Wants, The Lack, The Loss, The Frailty, The Agonies, The Bad Lucks, The Hustles and Bustle, The Injustices, The Prejudice, The shouting and screaming, and all the negatives.

only GOD brings meaning into them all for me.

The fool says in his Heart, there is no God

Only make a fool of you
And what if it's true?
Okay?? Bruh

What if he takes his palace in history
With all the prophets and the kings
What in the world makes you think he will I'm confused, humour me.

Who taught us love and came in peace
He didn't teach us properly then. A girl got killed in a church

But then the story ends
Okay?

What then?
It ends. Kapish! You're dead, you're dead. Stop being greedy for more life. Greed makes it easy to be duped

But what if you're wrong?
What evidence points otherwise

What if there's more?
More of what[b]. How do y'all think of this shit, na Nigerian film?
[/b]
What if there's hope you
I'm good thanks. Content in my mortality.

Never dreamed of hoping for?
For realistic things, yes. At least things I can see. At least!

What if you jump?
Okay?

And just close your eyes?
Okay?

What if the arms that catch you,
Lol

Catch you by surprise?
LOL. Seriously bro?

What if He's more than enough?
Who? The invisible arm?

What if it's love?
Hahaha

What if you dig,
Dig what?? Which soil?

What if you dig
Na wah o

Way down deeper
Okay?

Than your simple-minded friends
Insultive but okay?

What if you dig?
Cmon bruh, really? How many times

What if you find
Okay?

A thousand more unanswered questions
Okay

Inside That's all you find
I have no idea where this is going but okay?

What if you pick apart the logic
Okay?

And begin to poke the holes
Okay?

What if the crown of thorns is no more -
than folklore that must be told and retold
Okay?

But what if you're wrong?
Nothing signifies that I am, not one!

What if there's more?
Why should there be? Because a book said so?

What if there's hope you
Never dreamed of hoping for?
I'm[b] fine thanks
[/b]
What if you jump?
Micheal Jordan!

And just close your eyes?
Jump and close my eyes? Okay?

What if the arms that catch you,
Catch you by surprise?
The invisible arms?? Tough sell

What if He's more than enough?
the invisible hand?.

What if it's love?
Bruh!

You've been running as fast as you can
Not really

You've been looking for a place you can land so long
Definitely not on an invisible arm though

But what if you're wrong?
Okay?

What if you jump?
Jump again?

And just close your eyes?
Okay?

What if the arms that catch you,
The invisible hand? I hope anybody reading this doesn't from a safe height. Death is a possibility with you trusting an invisible hand to catch you.

Catch you by surprise?
Bruh

What if He's more than enough?
The[b] invisible hand?

What if it's love?
Na wah

Lol let's assume you did, then congratulations.

You are only able to create things because the creator himself created Man in his image and likeness, hence he gave man the ability to create things through science. Science is a gift God gave man to help him better his life.

But you were also created and the one who created you loves you and wants to have a relationship with you. Will you accept Jesus Christ? Are you even willing to give him just a little chance to show you that he is real and he is God?
