Why Do We Need God?

  1. If you never felt pain, then how would you know that I am a Healer?
  2. If you never had to pray, how would you know that I am a Deliverer?
  3. If you never had a trial, how could you call yourself an overcomer?
  4. If you never felt sadness, how would you know that I am a Comforter?
  5. If you never made a mistake, how would you know that I am a forgiver?
  6. If you knew all, how would you know that I will answer your questions?
  7. If you never were in trouble, how would you know that I will come to your rescue?
  8. If you never were broken, then how would you know that I can make you whole?
  9. If you never had a problem, how would you know that I can solve them?
  10. If you never had any suffering, then how would you know what I went through?
  11. If you never went through the fire, then how would you become pure?
  12. If I gave you all things, how would you appreciate them?
  13. If I never corrected you, how would you know that I love you?
  14. If you had all power, then how would you learn to depend on me?
  15. If your life was perfect, then what would you need me for?
"I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.  Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples. As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love. These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full." (John 15:5-11)
