Conflicted Faith
Submitted by: Mike P.
Upper Darby, PAI am from New York. I relocated to Pennsylvania to follow a dream. I have had mixed results with it but overall I am satisfied with my desicion. I want to move on to bigger and better things.
I used to be agnostic. However, four years ago I found God and began to believe in Him. As I became comfortable with this revelation in my life I started to pray to God regarding various aspects of my life. Some of the more important things that I prayed for came to fruition. One of my prayers that was answered was regarding a massive hospital bill I received that was reduced to an amount of money I could afford. For some reason I stopped praying to God on a regular basis and my life continued to go on as is. As I was going about my life I found a book regarding developing a relationship with God. This book brought me closer again to God and made me feel more comfortable with my relationship with Him. Recently, I purchased the Secret book and found it to be enlightening. Having experienced God’s favor in my life I began to feel more at ease with pryaying to Him for a better life. The one thing that I am improving but have not completely reconciled is the concept of asking some unseen universal force to improve my life and asking God the same thing. I am grateful to learn that the concept behind the Secret is a universal principle and I am excited to see what active use of this principle will do with my life.
