    For all the people that supported and watched this video thank you... truly love you all. If this video touched you please see my latest spoken word video "Where is Jesus?" God woke me up in the middle of the night and told me to make this for Him. I didn't take that lightly so I put everything in. Plus had to go back to parts of my past... God bless you all🙏 WHERE IS JESUS? || Spoken Word

      +John Oliver
      What about the Christians who were raped, murdered, tortured, burned alive because of their faith! What about Christians who die trying to share the gospel to those in Syria, Iran, India!?!? Why dont they ask that question?... Because they know the truth, any kind of suffering does not amount to anything in the presence of our Lord.
      If God does not exist WHERE IS THE JUSTICE!! If a rapists gets away, lives a normal life and dies a normal life what about the victim?!? WHERE IS THE JUSTICE!?!? If Hitler just killed himself after murdering all those people, where is the justice?
      At least with God we have mercy, we have redemption, we have hope. That is something your worldview does not give.

      +Tatiana M. Zayas Don't let anyone take you down. God made you beautiful He will always be there for you even when the path gets broken and your heart gets clouded know that He is always there just shout out to Him when you begin to fall into despair. I know there will be a time when you begin to doubt that everything you believe is nothing more than a fantasy but it's real. I went through the time when I didn't believe in God because of all that was around me and what I could see but beyond what I could see is the truth of our reality. A broken creation, split to its core the moment Adam and Eve bit that fruit and their faith dropped to the floor. People will tell you a lot that makes sense that the universe doesn't need God to exist and on paper, yeah, it's right, but He is the lion behind creation. Tell me, what kinda paper can stand up to a lions claw? It's our fault, we participated in the mutiny against God and so we found other outlets and solutions to try to explain but in our confusion, the evidence is feigned. Just think of what they say about the pyramids, many would rather attribute them to aliens that to admit we are not the smartest civilization. My plea is don't give up even when the world comes against you. The truth may be unpleasant, but the truth will make you brand new. God be with you.

    • @twelve535
      @twelve535 8 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      +John Oliver well guess what, you just lied to her. Christianity IS true, Jesus is alive, and deluding yourself wont change it. I used to be an atheist, but looking at the evidence, following the real truth, and not my own bias led me here. It pains me to see someone going through the same thing, and thinking he is in the right path.

    • @cciid
      @cciid 9 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      +Jake Tyler That's amazing, and is really important because God manifests signs only to those willing to even acknowledge His existence. Some atheists ask "where is God? Why hasn't he revealed himself in my life? Why doesn't he help me?" and I say "Why would He? When you don't even bother admitting he exists in the first place..."
      It's like a group of peasants in the medieval ages all huddling together in a pub, talking sh*t about the ruling king of their lands, but then the moment the king visits their village, they suddenly start acting all friendly and asking for favors from this king. Why would the king willingly help the people that foster strong hatred for his mere existence? It makes no sense. But I also know that God is Great and Merciful, you never really know what to expect. For example, I was fortunate, I was atheist and somehow found God (against all odds).

    Dear whoever you are,
    The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These humans have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.
    You my friend have been through whatever it is that life threw at you and you're here now, broken and bruised but not defeated.
    You my friend, are a warrior.

In the midst of your sadness and joy, I am close to you. In the midst of your strength and weakness, I am close to you. In your fears and doubts, I am close to you. I am just here, a step closer, so near to you. I am with you, and in these unknowns, I won't leave. You will never be alone. I am close to you." Thus says the Lord 💖

    i was raised by a christian family only 16 rn and i have depression, social anxiety and suicidal thoughts every freaking day. I dont have to explain how i feel. Those who have/had them know how i feel and i wouldnt wish it on my worst enemy. God says 'dont doubt me' but tbh i really am doubting him now. I still belive that he exists and that he created everything but i think that he cares for all of us and that he loves us is false :/ because if he did he wouldnt let me go through what i am going through or anyone like me. But i still love him. Kinda.

      @p.okandjo5288 8 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      Hey, i know just how you feel and i'm 17. See God gave his sons life for our sins. Jesus was beaten up etc. because of you and me. When I think about this it makes me cry. We should've been in his place, but God loves us so much that he let Jesus take our place. Isn't this love? Everyday we make mistakes and sins and God forgives us but some people would've abandon us. Isn't this love?
      2010 my little sister died, 2011 my aunt died, last year my uncle died, this spring one of my best friends died and some weeks ago i lost an aunt, again. Add all this pain which i have had for years with the pain you described. My school life is also about to crash down. But I stick on to that God. I don't blame him for anything. I'm not disappointed in him neither am i angry.
      Last month I had an extrem breakdown. I lost God. I always felt his presence in my life, but suddenly he wasn't there anymore.. It felt HORRIBLE. - till date I don't know what sin i did that he left me; it could also be because of a prayer i did, i asked him to let me feel how life would be without him so that i could appreciate his presence in my life more -. I never ever! want to feel like this again, it was so much worse than all the pain before.
      To feel his presence again in my life took a bit, but I made it and i'm so GLAD! i did without losing the way. Now i feel his love extrem. I never been loved like this before. Not from my family. Not from friends.
      My life is still crashing down but i know he lets this happens for a reason. He's preparing me for bigger things.
      I don't know if my story could or will help you - never telled it before -. But let me say, as child of God life will never be easy! The devil is no pleased because he knows that you're on the right way. He'll attack you till you lose your hope in God. Than he's pleased. In some combats God will stand up for you but in some he'll do nothing to shape you for your future. People get strong because of the tough times you know? He wants you to get stronger. He loves you. And if there's a day where you feel unloved just pray to God. Tell him how you feel. Tell him what you need. "Behold, the LORD'S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear"-Isaiah 59:1
      I hope you'll find the love you've been looking for.

      Robel Tesfu Life is hard, but the thing is to realize that you are only put through things that God knows you can handle. When the devil see's you going through this and still carrying on with life it angers him, it destroys him, and God loves to see you build your strength through past things that tested you, he will supply and in him you will not die, just know that even though we fail God every day he never fails us. We will always have the things and necessities for us to live and carry on, I pray for you and hope you get through this and one day use your testimony to change the nations and to tell others that God provides a way, and he is the way. If he didn't love you he wouldn't have placed you in this world, and give you strength and the ability to get back up because God isn't part time

    raised in a christian home and always being told that God is in control of everything , that he chooses who loves him back. it's easy to blame him for everything wrong in my life, it's easy to be angry that I'm depressed and anxious. but maybe the reason Im this way is because I don't have a relationship with God. I want to be happy and trust him, but I can't force myself to love him .

    • @nicolemunoz5707
      @nicolemunoz5707 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Always remember when you accept God things don't always get easier they sometimes get harder because the devil now has to fight even harder for you to part from God and give up you just have to be strong and show the devil no matter how hard he tries to knock you down and get you to part from God that it's not going to happen because you know God has your back and you will get through anything with your Faith in the Lord. Stay strong and open your heart for God ;)

    • @nicolemunoz5707
      @nicolemunoz5707 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It's reasonable to wonder why God didn't destroy Lucifer and his angels instead of just casting them out of heaven. One wonders why God didn't just destroy Lucifer right at the beginning, when he started murmuring. Wouldn't the destruction of Satan have prevented all the suffering in the world today?
      Lucifer started this controversy by attacking God's character. He asked aloud, "Is God's way the best way? Does God deserve to be God? Does God deserve our love?" All of heaven began watching this controversy intently, waiting for the answers.
      What if God had “answered” Lucifer's questions by destroying him? Being destroyed for asking questions doesn't seem fair. Can you imagine what the other angels would be thinking? At least some of them would have wondered if Lucifer was right.
      They might have come to the conclusion, "Don't question God, or He'll destroy you!"
      Now, instead of worshiping God out of love for Him, they would worship Him out of fear. Many angels would be left with doubts about God's character. Yes, God could have destroyed Satan, but that would have left behind doubt and fear.
      God is love. The only loving way to quell this uprising was to let it complete its course so the answer would be obvious to all. The best way to answer Satan's questions was not to destroy Satan, but for God to demonstrate why His way is the best way, why He deserves to be God, and why He deserves the love of His creation.

I realize that all of what I went through was only preparing me to do greater ....

    we have all said these things to god even ones who walked with him when he was on earth. be encouraged that he does hear our prayers, he knows our hearts more than we know ourselves. our life is to seek his will and plan. . when things do go our way will we be like temperatum spoiled children stomping our feet or do we humble ourselves before him and trust him. look at what a guy named Job had to endure in his life in the bible.. he lost everything but all of it was restored after he passed the test. there is hope, there is restoration, there is love that surrpasses all understanding. the question remains will we give up and are we willing to seek him?

    i've wanted so much to write a comment under this video but i am afraid someone of my family or friends will see this comment. This is one of the videos, who saved my life many times in the last year.
    I relate too much to the poetry. i've lost everything even myself.
    I tried so hard coming closer to jesus again, but somehow i feel like a million miles away.
    I am lost and broken and i hate myself for not being brave enough, and i hate myself for not being able to reach out to jesus. because everytime i am screaming and crying and reaching out. nothing happens, nothing changed in the last year and i am still waiting for being saved again, because i am not able to live without gods love. its enough, how many struggles do i need to take again? because i cant bare one single struggle again. i just need a saving soo bad.
    thanks Matt for saving my life a little bit every single time i hear a poetry of you

      A teacher wrote a sum on the board. A student says that its wrong. If the teacher just sent him out of class then the whole class would doubt the teacher. If she allowed him to prove the theory, even though she knows he would be wrong. The whole class will never doubt the teacher and know that the student was at fault.
      Gods hurled satan down to earth to prove himself even though he knows he won't win. Satan is the reason we die, the reason we sin, the reason for pain.
      God has not done a thing to you, he is in more pain than what you feel now because he's had to watch each and every one of us suffer and go through emmense pain. He can't wait for the due date of Satan ruling over the earth.
      Until then can everyone STOP BLAMING GOD FOR THE BAD THINGS THAT HAPPEN! AND STOP THINKING GOD WOULD TAKE AWAY YOUR LIVED ONES TO BE HIS ANGELS. Lets just say if he actually did want your loved one as an angel. Why would a god of love take away someone as painful and brutal as a car accident, cancer, illnesses. Its so obvious that Satan is still trying to prove that he is better than god and in control of this world. Yet still people blame god for letting it happen. He wants nothing more than to remove satan from ever harming another soul but he wants us here on earth that doubt him to see that Satans way of ruling is cruel.

      Good question. It's time for humanity to get past "god".
      We Humans support each other.
      Change happens.
      Its about US. Not god.
      Don't blame God Just push through.
      Don't Trust god. Don't Love god.
      Don't have faith. Don't hate god.
      Death is the END this life is IT.

    After my dad died I was diagnosed schizophrenic and bipolar. I became an atheist who prayed earnestly for 7 years for God to show himself. I’ve been A Pantheist and just recently Buddhism sounded most accurate then I woke up one morning and the LORD explained everything to me. I became a Christian again. But for the past few days god has gone away, I don’t hear or feel him anymore. Instead i hear things like hail Satan and I never even sinned or got angry at god so why would he allow this? He gave me this smart and crazy brain and pure heart so I could suffer then go to hell?

When you mentioned your friend getting in an accident on July 4th I knew there was a reason why I watched this a few months before my brothers passing. Your spoken words are amazing.

      NTIH Official I'm so very sorry for what you're going through esp at such a young age. I am loosing my dad. I'm praying right this minute for you. God will carry you through cling to Him nonstop no matter how many times a day/minute you need to call out to Him for comfort & help. The Bible says He is close to the broken hearted & crushed in spirit, that He binds up the wounds of the broken hearted, that He has every tear we ever cry saved in a bottle & He will heal, strenthen, comfort, & bless us. Reach out to Christians & churches or online- just anywhere that you can whenever you can to get through this. God bless you & He will carry you through.

    It's at times like this that i remember that belief in god is possibly the biggest connector of religions. I'm a muslim, and looking through the comments it seems the majority are christian's and yet i can relate to nearly everybody's struggles as well as the feelings of the man in the video, and it's a spectacular feeling to know that belief (or lack of it) can connect everyone. No matter who you are or what you believe.

    Brother, I don't even ask why God makes things happen. I am not angry at God for the total disaster my senseless 40 year old life had become. I believed in Him rock solidly for 40 years despite all the ridiculous failures in my life, and myself being a complete failure. I always had hope.
    Note the past tense. I don't believe in anything anymore.I have no basis upon which to hope anymore.
    I wish I could say non-believing makes me feel better. But nothing does anymore.

    this hit so close to home. You took words I have said and put them in here, and I was in utter disbelief. you took a rotation so similar to mine and have now given me hope. But more than anything, you showed me there is a way through the mess I've been through, and out of the suffering. has brought. thank you, I'm in tears because of this. Because it hits so close to what I've had to endure. the relentless, never ending feelings of loss: my uncle, my parents marriage, my other uncle, two great grand parents and multiple pets. All in 3 years. This hits so close, because I'm still in pain.. I'm still in sin, and I started to hate myself because of my sin. I know not to do it, but it felt like it was the only way out, and I hate myself for it. I'm in tears because I chose to come to TH-cam instead, and was lead here. How life works... How God works. he truly does turn a mess into a message, he truly does do miracles. Thank you for this. I needed it.
