For what it's worth, Kitty, God can and does pass messages to us even when we AREN'T attempting any "method" of being receptive to Him. That's because He IS God, and can act by His own initiative.

Once in my Navy career, at a time when I was having to live in a dormitory-like barracks, I had my room to myself on an off-duty day. I was lying awake in my bunk, with NO other human being near enough to have spoken the words I heard in the air next to me. An actual audible voice said simply, "Get up!" So, "just in case" that was God issuing the order, I did get up.

All that day, I looked for anything to happen which would prove that there was a reason for me to have gotten up when I did, instead of maybe an hour later. There never was anything I could identify. But when I told a Christian friend about it that evening, he said, "Maybe all God wanted was to see you obeying His voice, even WITHOUT knowing the reason. And you passed the test."
 
Hmm I wish that the world was an sugar coated apple candy place full of ponies riding over rainbows.
I wish that sometimes I wouldn't be so pigheaded.
I wish that I could understand HER.
I wish that Jesus would come. now would be fine:D
 
i wish, and hope, and pray that my grandmother and father will make it to america safely tomorrow, and that their flight won't be delayed or cancelled.
 
the thing is I've only felt God once in my life and that was at a christian camp I went to last year. I've tried really hard to feel him again but can't. I've tried not trying hard to bu that didn't work either. I've been reading my bible but I find it really boring and un-relating to what I'm going through. I've been praying but I just can't even imagine him saying anything back. Thank you for the verses and encouragement

I'm almost the same way Kitty. I was at my happiest and closest to God at Church Camp this summer, and then when I came home, I slowly began to distance myself (inadvertently) from God. Recently I've just felt so lost and found myself worrying a lot more, so one night when I couldn't sleep I turned my light on and flipped through my Bible for a bit. I came across a verse, Psalm 63, which really helped me feel a bit better. I took finding that verse as a sign of God communicating with me. So I guess what I'm trying to say is that, even though most of the time we're wanting to hear from God literally, like hear a voice, and that sort of distracts us away from the other ways He's speaking to us.
