Who could stand against us?

Late night convos with my roomie are fun. We talk about a little bit of everything. To include God:

"We are going to praise God constantly when we go to Heaven, know why? Because each day He is going to show us a time we should have died and didn't. Like the verse about if we believe in God nothing can cause us lasting harm."




If God is for us, who could be against us? - Romans 8:31

Would we be any better?

I saw this on facebook posted by a friend of mine. I'm going to leave names out of this because I don't think a name would be necessary. But an exact quote of the post is:

"everyone should visit godhatesfags.com and send as much hatemail as possible :) they picket soldiers funerals because these soldiers supposedly died because God is dooming America because of DADT. its ok i know youre thinking "OH MY GOD WHY?!" but theyre going to rot in hell so its ok :):):)"


My response to it was:

"that is a HORRIBLE idea. it's stupid. yes, what they do is wrong. but do you really think tons of hatemail makes us any better? i dont think so. do you think tons of hatemail will make them change their ways? no i dont think so. i think tha...t would just motivate them to keep doing what theyre doing, more often, and louder.
honestly sending hatemail to make a point is stupid AND pointless. youre making yourself stoop to their level to prove a point. to have them change their ways to a "loving" way. it doesnt make any sense.
sending hatemail to make a point, in my opinion is no better than the guy who wanted to burn the quran on 9/11 to make his point.

especially coming from my christian point of view too. God doesnt want us "hating" to show love. you kill with kindness.
hatemail wont do anything."


Would we be any better than those people from that website? I don't think we would be. I honestly think we would be worse.

Lessons1

Sometimes we don't understand life, but life doesnt ever stop because of one person's choice. All we can do is move on, be happy with the life we lead, and pray for the best to come for the ones we love. I dont know, maybe I'm just naive, but that's something I've learned on this path I've been on.


Life is life. You can't change what happens.

If I could go back in time.

If I could go back in time I would say all the things that I never got a chance to say. There's always things in life that we're going to regret, but we can't let that get the best of us. It leaves us bitter.
If I could go back in time I would tell you how much people love you. I wouldn't let a day be wasted in arguements or anything of the sort. Just pure talk of love. There seems to not be enough of that in our society today.

Things never happen when we expect them to. It's life. If it happened how we wanted it to happen it would be so much easier to live. No one ever promised us easiness. There's times when you don't think you have anymore left to offer, but you do.

If I could go back in time I would let you know that you had more to offer. I would change the little things that were said that meant nothing, but remind you of all the things in life that go unsaid yet mean everything.
If I could go back in time I would have so many things to change. But that goes against the living without regrets thing.

There's times that I wonder where exactly life is taking each of us. I've slowly come to realize that you shouldn't question it. Even though you shouldn't it doesn't mean not to. We wouldn't be human if we didn't question things.

I could never go back in time to change the way things work out, but if I could...believe me, I would.
