FREAKIN' ANNOYING.......

Ok, so I started a post like 15 mins ago and when I was about 3 "paragraphs" down, the FREAKIN POWER WENT OUT! I hate when that happens. It just went off and right back on....hey...don't get me wrong I'm not complaining but it was frustrating!!! I know as good as anyone that dealt with the three hurricanes that came through here, that living without power....SUCKS!!! We were out for a week (including all the days through each hurricane) not to mention the times it would go out for an hour or two while they were trying to repair stuff. So I know how it is....I'm thankful(just in time for thanksgiving :o) that we were only out for that long, but you don't know how wonderful the things that we do everyday are until you can't do about 90% of them...(ya I think I'm going to invest in one of those Backup things for your computer so that I don't have to loss EVERYTHING when the power goes out!!)

Ok now, to what I was posting about BEFORE the power went out...

So I have just been chillin (now that I can) and I was looking around at all the different blogs and it got me thinking about some stuff:

• There are so many different blogs on here and it's just really cool to look at them all. Some people really get into to it, they really "deck-out" their blog. They are so technical and stuff. I have no clue about how to do any of that stuff so I just stay real simple...I mean maybe I'd add some stuff if I knew how, but since I don't I'm fine. Some of the blogs though geeze....I wonder if they have ever heard of the saying "Too much of a good thing, is bad". But still I'll give "it" to them in saying atleast they know HOW to do that!
• So I was reading this guys blog and it was a great blog! He is such a good writer/blooger/whatever you want to call him....But it was great. The way he wrote about stuff was so cool, very entertaining.... And it wasn't just about boring things, he had some very valid points, it was very informative, intriguing, beneficial stuff! So that was cool...
• Another thing....I was on this one blog and it said something about Australia, and of course my mind went to ONE thing, my cousin...See my Aunt, got pregnant she was like 20. She wasn't married, and the guy was a jerk about it. So she decided that the best thing for her to do was give the baby up for adoption. I don't really know much details, since I was like 2 when that happened. He was adopted from a "nice Christian family" that lived in Australia (I put that in quotes because that's what I was told..I don't know for sure so I can't say...not that I don't believe it, but I just don't really have any proof...ya know). He was born like 3 months after my brother, so they are just about the say age. I've always wanted to meet him, and I'm sure my aunt probably would too, I've never really talked to her about it. I know that she still thinks about him, and that whenever she hears anything about Australia she thinks of him too! Ya know I should really talk to my mom about that whole thing again sometime, the stuff I know now, is just stuff I remember from when I was young.....and after all who knows what I could learn about it! I was 17 before I FINALLY put 2 & 2 together and figured out that in order for my Nanny to have my mom @ 17 she would've had to be 16 when she was pregnant...and why else would she have gotten married and had my mom so soon, if she wasn't pregnant first?!?????? To this day I STILL can't believe that I didn't figure it out sooner. Not that it really matters, that's just my point, you never know what you don't know....
• It's so amazing to me and kind of incomprehensible on how so many people don't believe in God. And "aren't religious". I just sit and think and it amazes me how complex everything is in this world and it blows my mind, to think of how everything is...I just don't see how people can not wonder how all this happened. I know I have believed in God/The Bible/Jesus since...well forever (that I remember) and odviously I understand more now that I'm older and make my own decisions but that is what gets me the most. That so many "grown" people just live, and don't even seem to care that it's not about just living here on Earth. It comforts me in knowing that I will live in eternity with God in a perfect place (nothing like this place) and sadness me to know that there are people that are going to choose to never have a relationship with Jesus and won't spend eternity with him. That just gives me such an urge to try and "Win one more for Jesus"(Purpose Driven Life). I am not perfect by any means, but I want to live everyday for the Lord, and be more like him. Like his example he set for us.
• That brings me to another subject that I thought about when I was looking through the blogs, The Passion of The Christ. What an amazing movie. I have only seen it once. Our church rented out a movie theatre one Sun. after it got out and we had our Sunday AM service in the theatre with praise music and then watched the movie. So many people have talked about how blasphemies it was and how horrible it was. Honestly, as a Christian, I cried when I watched that movie. I have never cried over anything like that in my life. They were nears of happiness/sadness/grieving(I can't even describe it). Was just sitting there watching and tears were just flowing down my face. Watching that movie to me was not to just "go see a movie" it was an experience. It showed me with great detail the story I've heard so many times, and yet it was the first time I had ever really understood it. I mean yeah sure before I knew Jesus died on the cross for our sins, and I understood that but not to the amount that I understand it now. It wasn't about the actors or anything I honestly didn't even see actors there it was just the words and everything put together.....Amazing! The whole movie is in subtitles and I didn't have a problem at all figuring out what was going on. It was as if it were in speaking English. Needless to say I just pray for those that don't understand the impact that this movie had on me and on many that I know. Those that say that it is blaspheme and say that they could never see it(many I have personally talked to, some very close to my heart) Are missing something. There is a reason that they are saying they don't want to see it. I honestly believe that satan is feeding them these stupid ideas and I just pray for them that one day they will (too) understand the true meaning on having a personal relationship with Jesus. Because in the end....that's what's going to matter, not what kind of car you drive, how much money you have, not what kind of grades you made in school, not how "good" you are, BUT if you know Jesus personally and have confessed to him that you know you are a sinner and you give that to him. He did to the cross for your sins, not His, so that we could live eternally in Heaven with God.

Ok well that just about wraps up my random thoughts for now...(well not all of them but we'd be here forever wouldn't we...:o) yes I know at times they were VERY random...but hey what can I say....
