Can you think of any scriptures about relying on God and letting him do it, also the benifits of letting him do it? I'm just wondering since I wanna learn more about.

I tried searching on google yesterday, but I couldn't find any about what I'm looking for.

yeah once...

Could you guys also tell me how to ask him with relying on him for stuff like that. Mostly with stuff like fear,programming skill(I'm gonna need more skills since I'm trying to make a game from scratch, so it's a little harder to start out than I'm used too.), finding a job, finding a girlfriend?

It mostly seems like since I started was asking him for help in those area, it's been more like a vain repetitious prayer...
I've also been asking God to help me draw nearer to him, but it doesn't seem like it's helping that much...

I'm also trying to do my part in drawing near to God. My main problem is reading the Bible, I pretty much have to force to read it if it's longer than a few minutes. As for praying to him, I definatlly do at least a little each day when I'm not busy, but I don't really set aside a special time to spend with God and when I do it's usually only 5-10 min...

Why would you look on google when you have a perfectly good Bible available? Look there.

My advice:

We should always be in communication with the Lord—all day long, like a prayer you start when you first get up in the morning, which you don’t finish till you go to bed at night. Remember that the Lord is not only our boss, but he is also our friend.

You’ve already read the whole Bible. At this point I would suggest you not read it so much that it becomes painful to for you.

Jesus is our example. Many say this and don't believe it, because it seems that He did things which we cannot do. But He is our example. And He said of Himself, over and over again that if those watching Him and listening to Him had seen Him, then they had seen the Father. He stated simply that every word He spoke were His Father's words, that as He heard He spoke, and that every deed He did was just what He saw His Father doing.

But how do we follow Jesus in this way? How can we see Him, and hear Him to see what to do and hear what to say? By His Spirit living in us. He is our life, right?

I think on it this way; when I first fell in love with my wife, I thought about nothing but her. (Now, 31 years later, I still think on her quite a lot.) But the love of God is much much stronger, and I love Jesus with a love which is not my love but God's love. And I think about Him and on Him much of my time in this life, even more every day. And as I do, as I think on Him and listen to hear His voice in my heart, I become more and more lead by Him, by His heart, and I see what He is doing in the lives of those around me, and my prayers and words and actions become lead by this vision.

Lead by the Spirit I call it. And Paul wrote that everyone who is lead by the Spirit of God is the child of God.

And so I sign.............In His love,

God never promised us life was going to be easy but he did say he would be there to help us and be our strength when we do go through it .
if we are going to a bad time God is using it shape us .. I heard this saying if we can stand the pulling god will pull us though what ever we are going through ! well all go through stuff in our lives but we have to keep our eyes on HIM and praise HIM during the storm .. not because we want to but because HE deserves it... God bless

When we believe, we are tried, tested, proved and proofed. God cares about us enough to cause things to come into our lives which will make us grow in Him, learn to trust and love Him, above everything else. And to teach us what He wants and does not want from us. He disciplines us as children He loves, because we are His children. (This aspect of being God's children, born of Him, is what makes belief in Jesus unique from other religions, and makes belief in Jesus something more than a religion.) Those who are not His, who are not in the path of righteousness which is Jesus Christ, are not disciplined, and thus not blessed in God.

When I am weak he is strong. Tell God your weak and you need his help. He makes you strong. The joy of the Lord is your strength. No matter what problems you have dothack you say as long as God is with me I'm a winner. Say it millions of times. God with you and no matter what comes against you you will not be defeated. A attitude ajustment. I am healed. No you don't have all these health problems you don't except them. You rebuke them in the name of the Lord. I am healed. I know soon all this health stuff will be gone from me forever in Jesus! Satan take your sickness and get out of of me in Jesus! Don't put up with all that. Thats your right as a child of God. You are the righteousness of God. You are a child of the King. Your not some nobody. Your a priest. You are above and not beneath. You are to put Satan under your feet. When the Father looks at you he sees Jesus. God says you are worthy so you are. Don't let any I'm not good enough be a part of you ever.

Also if your wondering where the name comes from...

That part comes from my fav anime, video game, manga, and book series(and you do have to watch,read, play them all to get the complete story)

Zero comes from a character called Zero in the Mega Man X series.

"dah thuhk zero," with the accents on "dah" and "ze," would sound good, wouldn't it?
