What is your proof of God?

Ooh answered prayer is another source of proof, yes!

mm this is really interesting.

i don't think i need any "proof" as such of His existence, i just know. im not a religious person but i am spiritual and i do believe there must be something else to this whole life experience.
having wonderful people in my life to learn from is proof enough to me. my grandma is one still one of my favourite people ever, even though she has passed away. she taught me so much that can never be taught from books or internet. just having her sent to be in my life is proof enough.

I am always amazed by things that are written in the bible that there is no way that humans could have known iykwim? For example, the bible says the earth is round but we thought it was flat for ages.

Just speaking personally, I don't really need "proof" of the existence of God. If I had proof then I wouldn't need to develop the ability to have faith. Faith is similar to trust and sometimes we just need to be able to place blind trust in entities and people other than ourselves. If you have faith/trust then you have the ability to relinquish control, for example. I think this is a good thing. It's not right to want to be in control of everything all the time. Children have to have faith/trust in their parents. Mankinds relationship, I think, is similar to that of a parent/child. The parent knows that things are "so" because of situations beyond the child's ability to comprehend. If mankind accepts that he doesn't know everything then he should, I guess, be accepting of a more knowing entity.

I also know that intuition can't always be quantified. My faith in God is intuitive.

I could write an essay about them moment I slid over from being an agnostic to a believer in a God as described by Christians/Jews etc. But in the briefest manner I often describe it as the moment I acknowledged that there was an evil force in the world. I guess it came back to my love of science/physics... Newton's third law seemed to explain it: Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. If there was evil I surmised then maybe there was a pure form of goodness I also seemed to come to the conclusion that there seemed to a universal set of laws dictating what was good and what was evil.... and this set of laws was NOT man-made.... it was divine. These laws were not evolutionary... they often seemed to go directly against the laws of nature as these laws had nothing to do with the laws of the jungle. And these laws had nothing to do with game theory (ie the laws of getting along to benefit you or your community). There is a set of laws that man did not make that govern us all whether we like it or not. When anyone says "that's not FAIR" they are a case in point.
