It's often said that God works in mysterious ways. You have to really think about what He's trying to do. You can't be lazy and believe in God He doesn't make it that easy. It takes spirit and faith and passion to really believe. Like most things worthwhile in life, you get back what you put into it. Only with faith, you get back a lot more.
