After I was through, I packed up my gear and started walking towards my car... and then, Allmighty god himself struck me down for my insolence and blasphemy!
I tripped on the stairs, and sustained a nasty sprain! So now, I'm in a foam boot, taking vicodin and eating doritos on the couch!
Did god punish me for watching such a heretical program, or did he just want me to gain back some of the weight I've recently lost?
(P.S. The doctors tell me I'll be fine in a few days, so maybe this was just a warning! Though, he must have taken his sweet time in getting around to me.)
It's hard to say, but trust me, if God wanted to punish you, you wouldn't be alive now. It could just be a warning.
God will call us to him in different ways, and an accident may not necessarily be one of them. That's something you'll have to find out. Go to a Church and talk to somebody, I'm sure they'll be able to give you answers.
Whether God is trying to talk to you or not, I don't know. It happened to you, and I'm assuming that you are the one that made the connection... or did your doctor suggest it? However, I'm sure God would be happy if you would let this be a turning point in your life.
reminds me of something i heard...
A United States Marine was attending some college courses between assignments. He had completed missions in Iraq and Afghanistan . One of the courses had a professor who was a vowed atheist and a member
of the ACLU..
One day the professor shocked the class when he came in. He
looked to the ceiling and flatly stated, "God, if you are real, then I want you to knock me off this platform. I'll give you exactly 15 minutes."
The lecture room fell silent. You could hear a pin drop. Ten minutes went by and the professor proclaimed, "Here I am God. I'm still waiting."
It got down to the last couple of minutes when the
Marine got out of his Chair, went up to the professor, and cold-cocked him; knocking him off the platform. The professor was out cold. The Marine went back to his seat and sat there, silently. The other students were shocked and stunned and sat there looking on in silence.
The professor eventually came to, noticeably shaken, looked at the Marine and asked, "What the heck is the matter with you? Why did you do that?" The Marine calmly replied, "God was too busy today protecting America 's soldiers who are protecting your right to say stupid ***** and act like an a**.. So, He sent me."
Hrm, yeah... an insult to the armed forces, free speech and the iraq war dead... not much of a joke.
