"Why do you believe that God exists?" We all have the same answer. Its written in every devotional and said by every pastor. We know he exists because our Bibles say so, right?

But think about it; I mean really sit and think. We have never seen Him in the flesh walking around with us. We have never sat down and psychically shared a coffee and a conversation with Him. So, if I took your Bible away and said how do you know God is real, how would you respond?

"Why do you believe that God exists?"

I know how I would. I was scared out of my mind and I was anxiety-riddled. I was convinced I would die before I left my bad situation, so I closed my eyes and prayed harder than I have ever prayed in my life. Then, the doorbell rang.

The doorbell rang and there was my moment to get out of my bad situation that was fleeting, but God opened the door for me. I escaped an abusive relationship and I have managed to make a good life for myself after having every piece of me ripped away.

On a snowy day, I was driving super carefully on a highway when a tractor-trailer drove up beside me and switched lanes. His back-end was going to hit the front of my car, so I swerved.

I hit a patch of ice and my car swerved in the median before crashing into the guard wire, totaling my car. I stepped out of a bent door with only some bruises and soreness.

"I prayed harder than I have ever prayed in my life."

I laid in my bed feeling so happy because I was going off to college and I was pursuing my dreams. When my life fell apart, God said, "I have a much better purpose for you."

Now I am pursuing a career in Domestic Violence advocacy and I am so incredibly happy. I am happier than I have been in a long, long time.

Do you want to know how I know God exists? Because I have given Him every, single possible reason to choose not to love me. I have ran from Him, I have purposefully disobeyed Him, I have pretended not to hear Him, yet when I pray I can feel Him and he loves me.

I know He is real because the moment I call to Him, I feel Him. I felt him after the car accident after I left my relationship after my life fell apart and got put back together.

"I have given Him every, single possible reason to choose not to love me."

I can't describe it. You have to feel it, but when you do it will be the best thing you have ever felt in your entire life. I promise that all you have to do is ask for God to show Himself to you, be open, and you will know too.
