thoughts form my morning commute

I recently learned from my pastor that everything has a sound. Everything up to and including your own DNA. He said that each strand of your DNA has a particular sound associated with it, so if your DNA was fed into a computer that can generate the associated sound it would play a song. Everybody’s song would be different because everyone’s DNA is different. So this set me in thought about what would be the exception to that rule.

We recently went through a sermon series on Grace. So I’m thinking AH HA! I’ve found an exception! That was until I realized that there is a sound to Grace as well. It’s the sound of the shackles and chains hitting the floor, granting your freedom, as the “guilty” verdict is handed down!!

That’s the reason I have no trouble giving my life to my Savior who paid my debt. I love the freedom given to me, as well as the love that then flows through me as a result of my relationship with the One who came before to pay the price for me! Thank you, Jesus! I love you, too!

Today I also thought about those poor atheists. Aside from the fact that they don’t get to live a life giving and being unconditionally loved (which is vital to true well being), but they also do not get the incredible feeling that comes from a life with a little faith in it. If you ever have the opportunity to have your faith grown through experience; it is unlike anything else you will ever experience!! The funny side to it though is this; while they fight so adamantly against the Creator, they enjoy some of His creations like air. Can they see air? No. Can they hold air in their hands? No. Can they do anything but have FAITH that the air is there? Yes. As an outward expression of that faith, do they just go ahead and breathe in? Yes. And with the faith that they put in the Creator’s (they work so hard to deny) creation of oxygen, they breathe in and breathe out, just the way He designed them to, and enjoy the benefits of that faith.

It would be a lot like sitting inside of a Ford F-150, driving up the road and denying the fact that Ford exists. That whole time, enjoying Ford’s creation. Sounds a little mixed up huh? I love the “highly intellectual” argument against God! Using the very complex functioning brain that He gave them to come up with fun facts like we were some monkeys with a peanut sized brain and then “poof” we became the atheist we are today spouting this “intelligence”. That’s too funny! I am very content to accept the fact that I was created by an omniscient, omnipresent, and all powerful God that loves me and has done everything necessary to ensure that I live a life with Him throughout eternity. Not a bad deal really! So enjoy your Grandmonkeys and I’ll enjoy my Heavenly Father!

Hand delivering the Gospel for Him!
