Cast me not away

March 24

Psalm 51 Verse 12: Cast me not away from your presence and take not your holy Spirit from me.

Some one once wrote that living a life believing in God is preferable to living in disbelief. For if God does exist, one is putting their eternal life at risk if they do not believe, whereas if one lives as though there is a God and none exists, then that person has lived well. My faith in a God is evidenced by the very nature in which I live. As I wrote in an earlier posting, I know enough about physics and math to think we are not a random occurrence of the “big bang.” In my mind there exists enough planned design to say that the possibility of a God, or higher deity, far out weighs the likelihood of nothing after life. So I do not want to be cast away from God, nor do I want the His holy Spirit removed from me. I have all of my physical life needing guidance from the holy Spirit and an eternal life needing the presence of God.
