I want to know God but I don’t want to be “religious”.
Past experiences of how someone else has practiced their faith can color our own thinking about God. If you find yourself drawn to God but repelled by the idea of religion, consider praying a prayer something like this:
God, I don’t know if you exist. I’d like to believe in you but I don’t want to be one of those people. I’m not ready for a long list of rules and I don’t want to change my life. If there is a way to believe in you and still be me, reveal yourself to me.
It says very clearly in the Bible that those who seek God will find him. Ask God to reveal himself to you. Be honest about your reservations. God is not offended by questions or doubts.
If you have questions you’d like to talk about, we’d love to hear from you.
