week late...

i ment to put this up a week ago but....wut the hey, ill do it now...

last week josh the intern (idk how to spell his last name) spoke at hfc. he said 2 things that really stuck out.

first, he gave the example "if i were to come in 30 mins late with a few scratches and maybe a little blood and u asked why i was late. and i told you that i was walking on the side of the main road and saw something shiny on the other side. so without looking i ran across to get it and a huge logging truck(we dont even have those on island) that weighed 4 million pounds and going 200 mph ran over me. you wouldnt believe me unless i had some kind of witness or video. and if i did have a video i would totally go youtube it right away so everyone would know what happened." then he said we should be like that when spiritual things happen. like if you found a cool gospel video or learn something new. which is one reason im doing this blog.

the other thing was he owned a million dollar house and he hired the best carpenters on island to build him some cabinets. he said he would pay them each 10 grand when he got back from vacation. but when he got back he found his house burned to the ground. his normal reaction would be to make the workers pay for all the damage, but they could never afford it. instead, he forgave them and on top of that paid them for the work they did on the cabinets before they burnt his house down...thats exactly how God forgave us, He sent his only son to die for us, and on top of that He gave us a free ticket to heaven, NOW THATS AWESOME!

so yeah, sorry this is so late, but its finally up!
