He came in the likeness of man, and died for our sins. His tomb is now empty, because OUR GOD IS RISEN!!! HE'S ALIVE!!!!. And if you're a child of God, you will be alive with Jesus forever.

I posted this earlier, but got such a great response, I thought I'd post it again.

Jesus said, “No one is good—except God alone.” (Mark 10:18) The human mind cannot comprehend the Divine Mind of God. We are not capable to understand everything about God. This is why we need to have faith that God know what’s best, even when it hurts. Usually when bad things happen to people, this draws use closer to God. The bible says, “Indeed, in our hearts we felt the sentence of death. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead. He has delivered us from such a deadly peril, and he will deliver us. (2 Corinthians 1:9,10) God wants use to trust and turn to him. We do not have salvation without God. We are just a tool of God’s work. If we do something good, that does not mean we are good person. Our righteousness only comes from God, which works through us. We are guided with the Holy Spirit.

So we need to rephrase the question to, “why do good things happen to bad people?” The answer to this question is out of God’s love. For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. (John 3:16) But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. (Romans 5:8) Jesus died for us out of love for his creation.

I was always nervous and didn't want to go fast. I thought the speed limit should be 30 instead of 45 and I always drive in the middle if there is more than 2 lanes. Has what happened in Minnesota caused more dread about driving over bridges?

Buddhism, Taoism, Shintoism, or Hinduism? Hinduism advocates a caste system, so I have the biggest problem with this one. Buddhism seems like the 'best' one.

I'm the only one who doesn't smoke at work, so is it rude to ask others not to smoke around me? Or does the majority rule?

I have heard this many times... "give it to God"... "Offer it up to Him"... "God has a plan"... "God will take care of this"...

Whereas God may help and support us, shouldn't we do our own spiritual work and healing? When things get too difficult or uncomfortable do you just pass your problem on to God and do nothing? Do you find yourself wondering why God never answers your prayers?

A person in my neighborhood has one of those cars with a sound system that makes their whole freaking car buzz and hum until it sounds like it's going to break apart! Does anyone else think these buzzing, shaking monstrosities aren’t cool, but ridiculous? They blast it loud too, making me listen to their brand of music whether I want to hear it or not. Talk about urban blight-- ugh! I just don’t get what the point is. Furthermore, what's a juicy, insulting name for these noise pollution generators? I thought of calling them "buzzers," but it's not scathing and humiliating enough!

I remember getting Buster Brown shoes and the store would give you a free plastic pencil holder or ruler. Now days, I can't tell school clothes from play clothes because the kids today look the same all year round. LoL

My sister and I had to share the dresses my mom got us.
