Once a materialist and a believer met and got to talking. When it came to God, the materialist said that he did not believe in any God, that all these were fairy tales and relics of the past. And the believer said that God exists.
-Have you ever seen Him?
-No.
-Or maybe you heard?
-No.
-Then where did you get the idea that He exists? - asked the materialist.
- Let me ask you too. Tell me, does love exist?
- Of course.
-Have you seen her?
-No.
-Or maybe you heard?
-No.
-But you don’t conclude from this that it doesn’t exist?
-It exists because I feel it.
-It’s the same with God. He cannot be seen, but only His influence on us can be felt. Just as the manifestation of the sun is light and warmth, so the manifestation of God is Love. If you are blind, you may not see the sun, but you will definitely feel its warmth when its rays touch you. And if you are “blind” and do not “see” God, then you will definitely feel His influence on you when your heart is warmed by love.
