Many of my ideals come from my religion, which currently I won't name.
Bible based, yes; is there a better moral compass?
A bit different than most, I know, with misconceptions aplenty and people who don't completely know, or know at all, but the religion is there.
Some time ago, I didn't know if I should put my faith in what I didn't know. Then September 2012 came, and I was hating God as vicious as the Devil himself. How could a loving God take away a good friend in death, a good person who deserved the life he was given?
I hated God. I was defeated. I didn't know if I would ever see my friend again, and it ate at my heart like a shark out for blood. I prayed a bit, and got nothing. My faith was nearly destroyed; I didn't know if there was a God.
A few weeks pass, and for the first time in nearly a year, or maybe more, we go to our Sunday meaning, my mom and I, and it couldn't have been coincidence. 682Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Jhiw7SKcq
The song we sang of was about the promise of resurrection, the talk was about the very same thing, and the article followed along. For the first time since my friend's death, I felt hope, I felt secure that I would see him again. It restored my faith, and the entire time I was broken down in tears. 682Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2e8KXhVgv
Think what you please; I am not that vocal of my religion because I myself am still learning, and I don't like shoving things down people's throats because all that achieves is choking. This is just my story of how I found my faith in God, of the hope and security I feel in that I will seem him again, and that the answers I ask when concerning death will always bring me security, will always be certain and encouraging and scriptural-based and leave me with no more questions.682Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXp5uhRhlIq
AN: First religious piece I've ever written. I hate being outspoken on such matters, so I want to reiterate believe in what you believe in; don't let anyone shove other beliefs down your pipe. Believe me, I know how annoying that can be. Make the truth your own.
