The Grace of God as Proof He is Person - the Really Big Guy

There is a standard operating procedure to life and prayer: what we believe becomes. We are warned by many Law of Attraction advocates not to want, for that is what will manifest - the want that is believed. For to them God is impersonal. Yet innumerable people approach God with beliefs of want, fear, need, deprivation, angst, dejection, desperation, anxiety, etc., as their whole thought. Faith in the invisible presence of what they need, confidence in its "received" state -- zero. They cry and/or fall on their face before God. And God answers them. The rain stops, or starts, the enemy passes by, the check arrives, a hand is lent, the body healed. Deliverance and/or salvation comes through, clearly Providential.

Because God has His own technique. It is called grace. Didn't pray aright? He doesn't give a rat's behind. As long as they call upon HIM - the field/force of the Ineffable's Consciousness - as a Person. That trumps everything. He is like (this is simile), "Hold My beer; this one is turning to Me." God exercises grace with VOLITION AND DISTINCTION. The believer becomes the focus of His actions: this person for this reason. God is not impersonal. There is a discriminating, deliberately acting Guy there. He is not necessarily a three-dimension-like figure of light sitting in a big chair, but is an infinite force which is conscious of being a person (or at least something like a person), for God is a universal One. He is Wonderful, full of grace, and risen. THAT is our destiny.
