An Interview With GOD

I came across this posting on a website and thought of sharing it with you guys. The author is unknown.

I dreamed I had an INTERVIEW WITH GOD

" So, you would like to interview me?" GOD asked.

"If you have time," I said

GOD smiled. " My time is eternity.... what questions do you have in mind?"

"What surprises you the most about humankind?"

GOD answered....

" That they get bored with childhood, that they rush to grow up, and then long to be children again. "

"That they loose thier health to make money .... and then lose thier money to restore thier health."

"That by thinking anxiously about the future, they forget the present, such that they live in neither the present nor the future."

"That they live as if this life will never end, and then die as though they had never lived."

GOD's hand took mine... and we were silent for a while.

And then I asked, "As a father, what are some of the life's lessons you want your children to learn?"

GOD replied, " To learn they cannot make anyone love them. All they can do is to let themselves be loved. "

"To learn that it is not good to compare themselves to others."

"To learn that it only takes a few seconds to open profound wounds in those they love, and it can take many years to heal them."

"To learn that a rich person is not one who has the most, but is one who needs the least."

"To learn that there is more satisfaction is giving than recieving."

"To learn that there are people who love them dearly, but simply do not yet know how to express or show thier feelings."

"To learn that two people can look at the same thing, and see it differently."

"To learn that it is not enough that they forgive one another, but they must also forgive themselves."

"Thankyou for your time," I said humbly.

"Is there anything else you would like your children to know?"

GOD smiled, and said...."Just know that I love you and I am here for you..... Always."

Have You Ever Been swallowed by a Whale?

Have You Ever Been Swallowed Whale?

What a funny question to ask. I am sure everyone of you will answer No. But think about it a little bit more. On Sunday our pastor was teaching about a guy who was forced to spend some time inside a whale, and maybe to some of us it seems impossible that we would ever be so fortunate :-) . But it all depends on our decision.

I can still remmember how I was called to the principles office in school , cause I 'decided' to disobey. It wasn't a pleasant experiance and infact something I would like to forget. Think about it...... I DECIDED to disobey. Obedience or disobedience is a decision we make. And the consequences of this decision is faced by us. Jonah made a decision to disobey and he paid for it.

Which brings me back to my initial question. Have you ever been swallowed by a whale?

Faith Fuel

We need to have faith in God to get us down the highway of life, to the destination that God has planned for us. The Word of God is the fuel that keeps our faith moving along.

Grace Cafe

All of God's promises throughout the Bible are fulfilled in Jesus. The grace of God has been made freely available to us through the blood of Jesus.

The Bread of Life

Jesus said in John 6:36 "I am the bread of life". It is up to the believers to take the Bread of Life (Jesus) out of the Bakery (the church building), to where the hungry people are. After eating "Satan's Garbage", the aroma of the Bread of Life will certainly smell good.

Salvation

Salvation is a gift that is made available to those who repent, believe and confess that Jesus is Lord and that He died and rose from the dead to save mankind (Acts 16:31; Romans 10:9-10). This gift cannot be earned through good deeds or by simply being "good" (Ephesians 2:8; 1 Timothy 1:9). It is a matter of faith (acting out on what you believe according to God's Word concerning salvation).

If you are looking for a change in your life, if you are seeking a peace that is found only through a personal relationship with a loving God, then you are at the right place. God is ready and willing to help you—right now, and right where you are.

God of Justice

Our God is a God of justice, but also a God of mercy. Through the blood of Jesus, God's mercy is available to us now. It is up to us to decide to accept it. We don't want to be camping out in "Sin Forest" when judgment time comes.
