U have to wonder

It's funny. I was watching TV a few nights ago really late because I felt sick to my stomach. And while I was looking what was on I found a channel that said Rapture I decided(Since I'm a Christian(A real one that has a personal relationship with God.)) that I would check it out. It had people who believed that the rapture will come first then the tribulation. My mom and myself believe it happens after but we may be wrong! Nobody knows! Now for Christians we have no need to be afraid of death, because we're going to spend an eternity with our Lord in heaven. Now personaly it scares me sometimes to think of a different life beyond this. But that's where Christians are so different! If I trust God he will take all my fear! It's great!

I liked the kids Left Behind books, but nobody knows for sure if we will be ruptured first or after. But this one artist on this show had painted a beautiful picture of several people going into the sky to meet or Lord. And there was a clearish but beautiful women adorned for her husband(Like wedding dress and Vail) mixed with all the people coming up to meet Him in the clouds that symbolizes what kind of relationship we have with our Lord. It was such a beautiful picture that I wanted to cry! It made me so happy just to think of it! And to think heavens going to be a whole lot better! Some people think heaven is not real or hell, or that hell is going to be a fun place to be. Well all you need to do is open a Bible to a passage where it talks about hell and you will see it's a place full of wailing and nashing of teeth. Basically put it's the worst place you can ever be because you are etenaly seperated from God with no chance of parole.

But that's not the only reason people are Christians(Although some may be.) is the relationship with the God of the universe! The only god! The God that created you and me! Animals, plants, the earth, sun, planets, stars, that knows us before we are even born! That is THE God that I have a relationship with. Some people believe that if you are a Christian you have to follow a set of rules and you never have any fun! So contrary to what some may believe we don't have to follow rules(Although God wishes for us to obey Him.) and we're just as sinful as any other person. But the best part is God forgives us! He loves us no matter what we may have done! He will forgive ANYONE no matter WHAT you have done! That is my god.

Well you ask how do you know he is even there? Well first we have the Bible second you feel He's there! There is some part of you that knows He's there! That is what I believe. And He works in our lives as well. If you ask for forgiveness you feel a sudden relief a peace only He can give you. He sees everything. He knows all your thoughts. Even the most personal. What would you expect from the god that created you and me, that made math and science work so well, that even scientist can't figure out everything there is to know about earth. None the least space!

Well I can't wait for the camp coming up this summer! I hope it will be a lot like the camp I went to in California! And I hope I'll be able to visit friends and family this month! I miss my friends! I hope I'll be able to see my best friend in California! I've missed her! And I've missed my family a lot to back in California. Well bye for now!
