Seek Him before you say there is no Him

He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. (Hebrews 11:6)

An atheist said to a Quaker, "Have you ever seen God? Have you ever felt God? Have you ever smelled God? And you say you have a God!"

After a long pause, the Quaker replied, "Hast thou ever seen thy brains? Hast thou ever felt thy brains? Hast thou ever smelled thy brains? And thou sayest thou hast brains!"

There probably are very few atheists--those who have seriously thought about life and concluded that there is no God. There are more agnostics-thinking people who say, "I don't know." The vast majority of individuals, however, affirm--at least intellectually--that God exists...[and] recognizing God's existence is the first step to knowing Him personally.
