Last year I had an older Christian friend of mine talk to me about her doubts in her Christian beliefs. Basically she was questioning everything including her belief in God. She brought up some good points, which I of course do not remember anymore. But her doubts were spread to me. I questioned the existence of God.

I had a test that day and I needed to buy a shirt for a high school event I had that night. I took the test and of course failed it because my belief in God had always defined my life. The idea of not knowing if God was real scared me to death. After the test I left school to find a shirt. On my way I kept asking God why He did not give more proof to His existence. I managed my way into wall-mart and found this shirt that was twenty one dollars. I thought of Gideon and how he laid his sheepskin out to test God and I decided to try it. I asked God to make the shirt cheaper. When I arrived at the register I was charged seventeen dollars.

In the days that followed I revalued my belief and the reasons I believed. I talk to my friends and family and found the answers to many of my questions. But God had answered my sheepskin and for that day my mind was content in knowing that God did indeed exist
