Experiencing God

There are no special powers to achieve in order to experience God directly in your life. God is everywhere and always there, but does not intrude upon our consciousness without our consent. If anyone desires to experience God’s presence, they need only sincerely ask the lord to come into their life. It’s just that simple. Maintaining the connection between the Creator and the creature is wholly dependent upon the sustained choice of each individual. The individual’s prerogative in making that choice is supreme.
