Do you feel lucky?

Yes I too feel grateful that I have a belief in God. Not life changing for me as he has always been part of my life. Not sure that it makes me lucky or any luckier than my non-Christian friends. All of us have dealt with happiness and sadness so whether people have a faith or not does not mean that problems in life do not come our way. God can be a comfort during difficult times but cannot necessarily take our suffering away. That's just the way of the world.

How did it happen nanna8? I have always believed in God but I have never had that 'Bam' feeling that I have heard so many Christians say they have had. I feel very lucky to have the family I have, we are all very close and I have a very strong relationship with my adult children, grandchildren and husband.

I am not sure about luck, but I do feel that my family as a whole has been fortunate in many forms.

By that I do not mean that we have not had our tragedies and our disasters, but somehow things usually turn out OK in the end, but I do not know whether that is an in-built resilience or good luck.
