what do you spend 50 mins on?

LOL so recently... PLEASE DONT ASK ME WHY, i started watching dexter!! LOLOL i finished the first season.. and STOPPED! HAHA like... i can't let myself start the 2nd season! LOl or else.. i'll get hooked again!! iunno what intrigues me about it! it kind of makes me feel weird about myself! LOL... that i enjoy watching a drama about some dude who kills criminals that don't get what they deserve! lol LIKE at first, i'm like.. YES that dumb guy got what he deserved!! and then i think to myself again.... yeah i guess he deserved it... but what about second chances?! and then I thought about God.... to Him, we ALL deserve death.  I saw a quote on twitter: "There is never a moment in your relationship with God when the love you are getting is the love you deserve" LOL woow so true!! but isn't it CRAZY? okay i'm going off topic now.. but i was listening to a sermon from Matt Chandler yesterday.. and he said that one of our problems with prayer, is that we do NOT understand (CANNOT BELIEVE) that God DELIGHTS in us! HE LOVES US! even though we do the most stupid things ever... even though we constantly break His heart, He loves us!  And I thought about that... or what He said and I'm like... i think that is true!!! cos like, I know that God loves me, but do I like.. TRULY think that? and understand the ramifications of sin?? and what it means to God? and the fact that He still loves me through that, ... it's just crazy sometimes.. and to question God's love for you/us/me, is to question the cross. and i'm like wooww that is so true! haha another thing, from a sermon i heard at harvest  (in markham), is this... 1 John 4:9 "This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him." Okay...so God sent His ONE and ONLY Son into the world...to essentially suffer so that we could become children of God.  And like.. think about this... Jesus is God's son...like they were the SAME.. same being, entity, sinless...etc...but at the same time, God wanted Jesus to die on the cross for our (humans) sins so that we could have a chance to live through Him!!  Another point the pastor made was that.. in our legal system (canada) you can disown your own child (technically)... but you cannot disown a child you adopt because when you adopt a child, you are making a conscious decision to have that child.  Okay guys.. do you see the parallel here? We are adopted children of God...He only has ONE Son.. which is Jesus...God CHOSE us!! and He will never disown us!  HE loves us! and He delights in us!! and sometimes i find that truly amazing!! LOL


ANyways.. really weird how i got from Dexter to this LOLOL so random! AHAH jokessss!! but yeah!!! Dexter is 50 mins!! but, a sermon is also 50 mins long! ;) haha so yeah!! just saying!!! btw.. if you don't know of a pastor to listen to, matt chandler is greatt!!! i really like the way he preaches the word! (even though i have only listened to a few of his sermons)


Smile and be happy! :D
