text: does he speak to you? well...people at my chuch say that god speaks to them, but not to me, i feel like out of place. does he speak to you, what does he say and how does he speak to you?the pastor says im goind to be a reverand, but i think not, i dont clasify myself as a "good" person, why would he say that? im kinda confused. he actually spoke to me twice.    the first time:  my friend jen and i are talking about god and i'm like, "yeah, i pray, but i never get the impression that god is listening or anything.  it just doesn't seem real to me."  so jen tells me i just need to ask him to reveal himself to me and he surely will.  i'm like, yeah, right, whatever.  that night i remembered to pray that, you know, that he would reveal himself to me.  that night as i'm sleeping, i have a dream of the most powerful, the most graceful yet commanding voice, saying, "i am listening!"  the second time:  i'm driving with my friend doug cross-country--we're going to rescue his ex-girlfriend from champagne, il. i puked big macs all over the back of the van.  we had a nasty time cleaning it all up and afterward i am completely exhausted riding in the passenger seat, just completely limp like a fish.  we are then driving down the road when lights flash behind us, sure enough, the state patrol.  my friend gets completely paranoid for some reason, and that's when i hear a whispering voice telling me, "it's just going to be a warning."  i say to my friend out loud (not bothering to explain what's happening) "it's just going to be a warning".  they end up making fun of me and he gets off with a warning.  i am not sure of the trip your pastor is laying on you.  it doesn't matter if you're a "good" person... that's what grace is all about.  it's just that jesus said specifically, do not be called 'father', for you have one father, and he is in heaven.  why don't you ask him yourself?
