Greetings to all the friends of Steemit and the community of Steemchurch.
My name is Alejandro Marcelo Reyes, I am 27 years old, I am Venezuelan and I live in Barcelona. Capital of the Anzoátegui State.
I want to tell you when I met God and how I came to deposit all my faith in him nothing else.
From an early age, my parents began to tell me about God and what he means in our lives.
As I grew up, I attended together with my parents to different concentrations of different religions, such as, for example, Mormons, Evangelical Christians, Catholic Christians and Jehovah's Witnesses. Perhaps because I was only a child at that time, I did not distinguish the differences that exist between one religion and another.
So I was growing, as well as my interest and desire to choose among many religions the one that would bring me closer to God, a religion in which I could observe the faithful fulfillment of the scriptures of the Bible. A religion in which the people who preach it are of a single morality, and not that they pretend to be "Men of God" only when they are in temples or churches. A religion which did not put protocols to approach God.
Time passed and even today I can not fully deposit my belief in any religion, but if I'm sure of one thing, I believe in God "in my own way" maybe, but I accept it in my life as the only omnipresent celestial father , creator of heaven and earth and everything that inhabits it. I must tell you that I do not believe in virgins, figures, saints or anything with a form that pretends to have power or that pretends to be compared with the greatness of God, nevertheless, I learned to respect the beliefs of each person.
There is something that I always asked myself and I even questioned God's decisions about giving us "free will". I saw so many bad things that happen and happen in the world every day, every hour, minute and every second and I asked myself; Why does God allow them to happen? It would have been better for us to show only good and in that way every man and woman would only be on the right path...
Well, I'm going to tell you an anecdote, a lived experience of how God communicated with me and how I came to fully accept his greatness and his decisions:
Several years ago I lived in the city of El Tigre, a small town located in the southern part of the state of Anzoategui, to which I moved to attend the university. I lived alone in a rented room. One day after leaving class I was on my way to the room and I learned of some bad and ugly events that happened, in which several people were victims of the crime. When I arrived I did not feel like eating or doing anything, because that news affected me, I felt annoyed by the bad things that were happening. I went to bed and started reading the Bible and I asked myself that old question again. Why does God allow them to happen? and without realizing it, I fell asleep and when I opened my eyes I woke up sitting on something similar to a "bus" that was full of old people dressed in very bright white suits with long beards that seemed to shine as white as they were. I was not afraid, but I did not know what was happening. All had bowed heads and when I looked forward I noticed that we were approaching the sea very fast and at that moment if I started to feel fear and in a matter of seconds the elders raised their heads and repeated in unison some words like these: "Because God it is God, who created the seas and the earth and nobody has the right to question it ", immediately at the end of those words I woke up in my bed with the Bible open in the middle and on my chest. I remained silent and only felt a strong desire to cry and ask God for forgiveness, and I did so.
From that day I understood the greatness of God and learned to accept his decisions even though I do not like them, because I know that they have a purpose in my life and in all people.
From that day and on I put all my burdens on God because I know he will give me the strength, determination and intelligence to be able to solve them.
Thank God I have this beautiful family and it has given us the maturity, strength and love to keep us together despite the adversities.
I appreciate this initiative from 
Isaiah 57-15: "For thus said the High and Sublime who dwells in eternity, and whose name is the Holy One: I dwell in height and holiness, and with the broken and humble in spirit, to make the spirit of the humble, and to quicken the hearts of the broken ones "
