I was in the grocery store yesterday and I was just browsing through the kids toy section, just trying to keep up with what's cool. I saw a military man holding flowers in one hand and holding on to his sons hand in the other, and they were picking out some toys. I overheard him say, "I've got a good idea, why don't we watch Star Wars this weekend? I'd really love for you to see it with me." Just by his tone and his patience with his son, I knew that he was on leave and would have to go back to wherever he was stationed soon. It kind of brought tears to my eyes. He really wanted to make his time memorable with his son in a classic way. I even remember saying to myself, "That is a cute idea."
Matthew is not in the military and man I don't know what I'd do if he was... Military wives are the strongest women. Ever. I cried my eyes out when Matt got sent to Arlington for 3 days for his job. I'm pathetic, I know. Sometimes it takes a real look into someone else's life for us to know how truly blessed we are. And it makes me so mad at myself to know that sometimes I take a lot of stuff for granted. At the end of every day I try my hardest to understand that even though we are considered middle class in our society, we are not considered middle class in this world. There are people out there who would think our houses are mansions.
When I'm doing my Bible reading at night, I get this internal feeling of satisfaction. It's funny because our Bible Study group of ladies just started The Purpose Driven Life series, and I really connect with the author. I'm a deep thinker... if you didn't already know. And I just know that people all around the world know that they have purpose. Whether you're agnostic or atheist, it doesn't matter, you know that there is someone who created you. We did not come from animals, that's the stupidest thing in the world anyone could've come up with. We are so far advanced from that, there is just no way. I mean really. I feel like some people just don't want to believe it because they don't want to live by Godly standards and follow rules. I know there is talk about aliens and whatever, but it's all foolishness. I believe that our planet was created out of all of the rest of the universe for a reason, and that's so God can love the ones He created in His image. No one wants to be alone. All of the different species of animals including us have unique form and very different purposes in this world. We are the only planet of knowledgable, intelligent, focused human beings, in charge of taking care of everything God created for us on this earth. So who created us? It seems like a pretty easy question to answer. I'm going to give you a huge hint though, if you're a nonbeliever this might just shake you ;)
You ready?
This is kinda big.
Did you know that scientists found that the tiniest molecule is made up of sound waves?
So when God said let their be light and their was light, not only did it appear but His voice created everything. Just let that sink in for a minute.
So I basically just gave you the answer :)
I know I jumped topics in this one but I hope you got something great out of it.
Thanks for keeping up with my rambling! Until next time!
