I live on a 20 acre farm with my Mum and brother and always have. Lately, my Mum and I haven't been getting along as well as we used to be, and we end up screaming at each other. I went walking and found myself in the back corner of our property. It's completely deserted, so quite peaceful. I sat down on the rough grass and folded my legs. I put my finger and thumb together and closed my eyes. For some reason, even though there was no one for about 500m2, I felt like someone was there. I had my back to the neighbour's fence. It had dry grass that was probably waist deep.
I was in a grumpy mood from my recent fight with Mum. I kind of started talking saying "I'd like to believe you're there, but you never seem to do anything to help. Please just give me a sign that you're there."
I waited for a while; nothing happened. I tried again, getting a bit frustrated.
Almost immediately after, the grass behind me shook violently, as though a large animal was passing through it. I turned around and stared, slightly scared (What if it was a snake?) It faded away as though the creature was just sitting there. After a while, I inched closer to take a look. Nothing was there. It was an unnatural movement in the grass. I could see the bottoms of the grass quite clearly, so I'd be able to see if an animal was in there. It was the sort of movement by a fox or a rabbit, but definitely not the wind.
I haven't dared to question him since. I don't want to risk it.
My Mum has also had an experience like this over 10 years ago. She was driving late at night. It was raining and the road was black and almost impossible to see. She said "If you're there, then you should prove it to me."
Nothing happened. She got a bit smutty and said "Well I guess you're not there then."
Suddenly the whole car jerked as though she'd hit something, like a large animal or a wall. She didn't stop, because she knew it was nothing, she just didn't dare question again.
Thoughts? Opinions? Am I crazy? Lol

You are not alone here, my wife got quite upset at the Divine one evening. As I slept, she was awakened by a bright light in our room and a wonderful angelic persona standing before her, as if to say " okay I am here..."
Most of us have had similar experiences, mine was a very persistent cold chill which ran up my spine when I questioned the existance of the spiritual realm.
Why are you afraid to ask about the existance of God or Jesus for that matter and when they do show a sign you are afraid... Afraid of what!?!?
There is nothing that happened that you need to fear, if it was a snake, simply smile and ask it to move on along it's way.
The fact that the grass movement was not a "natural" phenomena should have warmed you to the core, for if you interpreted it as an indication of a Divine presence (which you did), then you have nothing to fear in HIS presence.
If you believe in demons, then not one would have come within a thousand miles of you as you walked in the comfort and protection of the Divine Light of God.
I recall a chapter in Glenda Green's book "Love Without End." In it Christ relates the story of flood victim who is on the roof of his house (bear with me as I try to recall from my rusty memory!), praying for Jesus to save him. A boat comes along and he waves them away, then a helicopter. He is waiting for Jesus to save him and when the waters take him and he finally meets Jesus he asks why he didn't help him.
Jesus simply replies "...I sent my help but you didn't take it..."
Now I may have the wording wrong but the passage is in her book and it is simply an indication that the Divine is with us all the time, we just ignore the presence most of the time.
How many times have you expressed something to the Universe or God for that matter and days or months later you hear the answer in a conversation between two strangers in the coffee shop. Perhaps the next song on the radio is the answer you sought and yet you didn't give much thought as to where or who sent it.
Open your eyes and your heart my wonderful friend, I am very sure you will be quite surprised by what has actually been in front of you the whole time.
Keep the Blue side Up!
