“But I don’t believe in God!”

Last week my dear friend, a devoted atheist/anarchist, told me that recently he had a strange dream involving horrifying demons trying to drag him to Hell. He remembers thinking (in the dream), “I should pray!” But then he remembered, “But I don’t believe in God. I have no one to help me.”

What a terrifying realization. No one to pray to. No one to help me. No hope.

I think it was an essay by C.S. Lewis that I read back in college where he wrote about how even the most devoted Believer, at times, struggles with thoughts such as, “Is there even a God?” And likewise, even the most devoted atheist, at times, looks at a majestic sunset and thinks, “There must be a God.”

May the Lord open the eyes of our hearts to believe that He is the One, True God!
