why you did what you did, when you did it, and how.\u00a0\u00a0 That is how it is to be God.\u00a0 The opinions, attitudes, complaints, and criticisms of the uninformed can not overrule, the originator.\u00a0 Others are limited by what they do not know and have no ability to affect; except their personal ability to benefit.\u00a0\u00a0 I often remind people that heaven is the home of God.\u00a0 He has told us how to accept His invitation to spend eternity there.\u00a0\u00a0It is to our advantage to find out from the one who is throwing the party how we are to get in.\u00a0 Reasonable minds will agree it would \u00a0behoove us\u00a0to do things\u00a0His way.\u00a0\u00a0 But we have determined since we do not see Him we do not have to believe He exists.\u00a0 We have not seen heaven,\u00a0 the air we breath, fear, pain, evil, or sorrow but we do experience them.\u00a0\u00a0 We know they exist because we can feel, know, or experience them.\u00a0 People who have an encounter with God are passionate about Him because of the amazing changes He makes in their lives.\u00a0 To those who say, &#8220;what about the god that tells people to kill people that do not convert?&#8221;\u00a0 I am not talking about any \u00a0god that requires people to convert or kill others.\u00a0 I share a personal experience with The God who loves us all\u00a0enough to give His own life to connect with anyone who will believe it.\u00a0\u00a0 The God who made the way Himself \u00a0for\u00a0us to \u00a0spend eternity with Him.\u00a0\u00a0 We have only to hear the truth dare to believe it and live to receive and benefit from the love of God.\u00a0 He made\u00a0provision\u00a0 for now and forever and\u00a0 it includes access to health, power, and \u00a0friends in heavenly places.\u00a0 Jesus gave His life to pay in full for a new life with benefits that includes a reservation to heaven.\u00a0\u00a0 Still He only made the way you must choose to claim your ticket in the way God requires.\u00a0 See\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/gacbooks.net\/?page_id=28\">Why Jesus page.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This new category is for all those who ask for more information on the things I share on this blog site.\u00a0 As I originally related this site began as an opportunity to allow those who have read my books to share their experiences.\u00a0\u00a0 I published 4 books in 2013 and will publish two more this &hellip;
