yes, I no what you are feeling (I think)...I think this is not bad
to think at all, since we are humble servants of HIM/HER, there is
no reaon for God not to use us as tools or to act through you...

No one could tell...what I consider God, could mean something else to
some other person, so I think there is no need to anyway, if he wants
you to know he is God, you will know in such a manner, you cannot doubt it
then again, who am I to say what God will or will not do...so, consider
all this as just my opinion, not a statement or whatsoever..

yes, you see, it does not matter to me too ! but I (ME,MYSELF & I)!! just
find it strange that I saw 2 different films, one in which he sais he IS,
and the other in which he sais he IS NOT...it's just ME that finds this
strange/noticable...I do not mean to speculate anything out of it, it is
just something I noticed...then all the sudden I find myself defending
myself as to wheter he really is or is not...that was really not what I
intended to do...I said it only to see, if others have seen this aswell,
and to see what they think of it...to see if I am the only one that is
having some trouble with it....

no..I agree...but there is just one other thing I am having some trouble..
he is not the only one that calls himself God...and you must admit,
there are some bad people out there that want to benefit by fooling other
people..well, aslong as such person are doing GOOD, like Sai Baba does,
I guess, it doesn't matter, but when they suddenly ask you to kill, or
stop taking your medicin etc...please get away from such persons then !

someday we all will have peace.......or be glowing green...
