Can you trust God to guide you?

How can you know that God is real and not just some religious fabrication meant to make you feel good? How can you know that He's there to guide you? How can you trust what you can't see?

God isn't perceived through the physical senses. He's felt in our hearts when we have a yearning to know Him. That naturally leads us to turn to Him for help. I've learned that when I rely solely on human reasoning to find solutions, I often end up with a narrow perspective. I find limitation. But when I turn to God in prayer, I find freedom and new possibilities.

Prayer—which, for me, is quietly listening for God's direction—has helped me see more clearly the goodness of God, which already exists.
