well someone would have to show me where in the bible miracles and other mighty exploits were done without reason or purpose for God's glory. At the moment I can't think of any. That was the basis for the comment i made.


Then try to imagine a Heavenly Father that would use his sovereign power to do something just for you because you are His child and He loves you, you know, like when He saved you from the grave! If you were the only person on Earth, God would have saved you because He loves you as much as He ever loved anybody. It is not a waste of His power to use it to lavish good gifts on his children.

The mightiest act will eve perform in you live is Salvation. Translation pales to your accepting Jesus sacrifice in order that you could be saved.

Remember, God loves you at least as much as He loves Jesus or He never would have sent His son to die on the cross for you.

*Remembers something*

You know what? It just hit me......I remember one time, I was on my way to church with my Aunt Becky. Normally, it takes us half an hour or longer to get to church--And I remember, we were sooo engaged in conversation that when we stopped talking--We looked up and saw that we were already at the exit off the freeway in 10 minutes!!

With no traffic it takes 25 minutes--So--Physically, it is impossible to get there in ten minutes! We left at 9:00 to get there at 9:30. We got there at 9:10! I remember looking at the clock.......And we both looked at each other like, "What....? How did this happen??"

And we weren't speeding or anything! We went our normal speed....

Honestly gurly--Everything God does has a reason or purpose behind it :) Like this translation thing--Really we don't know why God did it unless He told us straight out why.

But seriously when you think about it--Imagine what would have happened if God didn't? (I'm talking about ppl driving and then all of a sudden appearing somewhere else) There may have been a car accident that was gonna happen and we were gonna get hit and die--Or something would fall off a truck and injure us--Or we'd get hit by a train or whatever--Something may have happened!

But by the grace of God and because we are covered in the blood--God protected us for a reason--Because it is not our time yet--And we also vonfess the Word over our lives. That we will live ad not die! That we shall run the race that God has planned out for us.

I hope this has made sense chica--Be blessed! :D

That's what I'm talking about. Everything has a purpose, even if we never know what it is. I wasn't trying to say God doesn't love us. OH HOW I KNOW THAT HE DOES!:clap: Just making the observation that when His Hand moves, you can bet there is a divine purpose in it!
It never didn't make sense. I guess I was misunderstood.

He said that he went 400 miles in minutes.. and he doesn't care what anyone thinks..

He has the receipts to prove it..

Awesome, awesome God!
