I'm going to get a bit personal now. Personal to me I mean. When I lost my job last year it was like a kick in the teeth. A truly horrible experience. Driving home I was asking God 'why?', tears streaming down my face the whole way, in a right state. Between two villages (Hickleton and Marr for those that know the area) the following words came into my head. "When God closes a door he opens a window somewhere esle." I was in no state to be remembering bits from the Bible by myself, I was far too devastated for that. But those words came very clearly to me. From that moment I knew that there was something else for me, and even though there were ups and downs over the next few months, I knew it would be OK. I now have a far better job, in a better college, with more money. Now I know that a personal testimony like that won't swing someone who doesn't believe, but for me that is proof that God exists. I'm not syaing that I never doubt, that logic circuits never throw up question marks. But this, and other things that have happened to people I know, do convince me.
