Does God Exist?

“For what we need to know, of course, is not just that God exists, not just that beyond the steely brightness of the starts there is a cosmic intelligence of some kind that keeps the whole show going, but that there is a God right here in the thick of our day-by-day lives who may not be writing messages about himself in the stars but in one way or another is trying to get the messages through our blindness as we move around down here knee-deep in the fragrant muck and misery and marvel of the world. It is not objective proof of God’s existence that we want but the experience of God’s presence. That is the miracle we are really after, and that is also, I think, the miracle that we really get.”
-Frederick Buechner, The Magnificent Defeat.

What if God is in the kitchen right now preparing your favorite drink, making your favorite meal, and providing refreshment for you from today’s difficulties?

Psalm 104:15

(God makes) wine that gladdens the heart of man,
oil to make his face shine,
and bread that sustains his heart.
