clolibre you say: 'If he already knows then why doesn't he just take care of the problem or communicate to us letting us know what is going on' but God isn't like a parent in that way. He needs us to take responsibility too: that's what growing up is all about.
This bit I agree with: 'I just tend to wonder if the God we are following day to day real or imagined and the real God has yet to be found.' Well yeah I think thats right. We none of us have met God so each day is a meeting: the real God alludes us all: we're all still searching.
