What’s the craziest thing you’ve seen God do?

[bluejellybelly]

If you’re a Christian, like a miracle or breakthrough, or even maybe someone encouraged you with exactly what you needed to hear and you know it was God… all those sorts of things… I wanna hear!

I think your first sentence is subjective, but yes, people need people too. Definitely. However, people are fallible. They are sometimes flaky or neglectful towards people they purport to care about, people sometimes just stop loving their romantic partner, and judging by a lot of MN threads people are very quick to cut off their friends for small slights these days. The constancy of support and love from humans is often just not there because most people put themselves first (not necessarily saying that's a bad thing) and even when 'perfect' love happens it's eventually going to end with the death of one or both people. Human love is fragile and time-defined, in a nutshell.

Thanks for your reply @ruethewhirl Why do you feel that this unfailing, unbreakable love is necessary? If someone feels like they get these same feelings from people such as parents, partners, children, friends, do you think someone is less likely to seek this from a higher being? As a non religious person, I feel that I am wholly fulfilled through the love of these people I have. Thanks again for your reply, happy to hear from others why they feel they need this ‘love’ from god.

@CyclingAddict "I know a Jehovah’s Witness..she works in a charity shop and her God has asked her not to TOUCH anything Christmassy"

Not surprising-although the not touching is quite extreme. Jehova's Witnesses don't celebrate Christmas.

I think @CyclingAddict gets that, it was just in response to the original question about the craziest thing people ‘had seen God do’. And it conjures up visions of this woman freezing in divinely-mandated horror when some innocent customer tries to get her to bag a Christmas tree bauble she’s just bought…

There were JWs in my DD's class in Primary. The teachers were very inventive in finding ways for them not to miss out on various traditional Judao-Christian based treats...
