One or two blizzards would be cool.
I dont like blizzards I would have to shut down my computers. 🙁
😀 😛

Well that's one thing that sucks about blizzards, but I think blizzards are cool.
I dont mind the cold so much its thunder and lightning I dont like. Although with really cold storms there is no thunder lightning usually for some reason. 😀
Too cold maybe?
I think that is it. I think its usually when a cold air mass hits a warm air mass that the friction generated causes the electrical charge build up. If everything is just cold I dont think the charge build up happens as readily. At least thats my theory. 😛
Lol. Or maybe God takes a break from throwing darts at us.
Or that. 😛 😉 LOL
😀 😛
I saw a quote once that said: "God loves me. He won't throw darts at me." I always thought that was funny. 😀
My favorite god joke is
A man constantly prays to God to win the lottery. Finally after years of prayers God answers him and says "You know the least you can do is meet me halfway and buy a damn ticket." 😛
😀 😛
Lol. I know one similar to that one.
An old man is sitting on his porch when it starts to rain. The street floods and its up to his porch. A rescue boat comes by and the man says, "You can't stay here. Come with me."
The old man refuses, saying, "God will save me." And so the boat leaves. Soon the water rises, forcing the old man upstairs.
Another rescue boat comes by, but again old man says, "No, God will save me." So the boat leaves and soon the water rises, forcing the old man to the roof.
A third rescue boat comes by, but the old man refuses, saying, "God will grant me a miracle and save me." The boat leaves and finally the old man drowns.
The old man gets to heaven and meets God. The old man asks, "Why didn't you save me? I thought you would grant me a miracle and save me, but you let me down."
God replies, "I did! I sent three boats after you!"
LOL I have heard that one too. Its very funny. Though in the version I heard it was two boats and a dingy. 😛
LOL. I love the joke because it's so true. We often miss God's help because we expect something grander than what we get.
Yes I agree. I used the jokes in P and R a few times to get that point across. Dont think I did though.
A priest told me this story:
Two souls one from Hell and one from Heaven are chatting. The one from Hell says "Its horrible here they have these huge buffet tables filled with the finest food but we have only these ten foot forks to eat it with so we starve. 🙁 " The soul from Heaven replies "Oh we have that same set up here too. 😀 ". The soul from Hell says "How do ever do you manage? " The soul from Heaven says "Its simple we feed each other and we eat like Royalty. 😀 "
😀 😛
Lol. Very good story. 😀
Glad you like it. 😀
The priest told me that people always think God is into punishing everyone who misbehaves but he said the story show it is us that punishes ourselves when we dont accept Gods love and compassion.
I always liked the story for that reason cause its really about wuv.
😀 😛
Totally. When we think of others rather than of ourselves, we are rewarded.
Yea exactly. Sorta like the movie "What Dreams May Come" with Robin Williams.
Y'know, I've had people ask me why I believe in God or think I'm just scared to not believe in him, and it's like you don't understand. My faith in God is my comfort. I have a peace that nothing else has been able to give me and I've looked at other faiths and I've questioned his existence. It makes sense to me. 🙂
Exactly. There is an AHA moment where suddenly you get it. Occasionaly I get this incredibly beautifully feeling from a sunset or rainbow or from seeing some pictures of the Universe. Suddenly its like god is giving me a glimpse into his view of things. Its incredibly peaceful and mind boggling at the same time. 😀 It inspires my art often. 😀
Also like you say I am not scared of anything occult or supernatural. Cause I know Jesus has got my back. One my cousin met a bunch of Satanists on the street once and they were picking on her cause she had a bible and prayer beads with here, She just prayed and the Satanists all ran away. LOL
Totally. Satanists I think are just wannabe tough kids who wanna rebel against Christianity. Maybe there are some who are serious about it, but most seem that way to me.
If you really want a good laugh read the 11 Laws Of Satan. Sorta the 11 rules all satanists must follow. I think one is "You must repsect someone elses Lair." Who uses the word Lair anymore... really sounds like some messed up geek. LOL
Grandma always told me if I ever am confronted by the devil to kick him in the nuts and spit in his face. 😀 Grandma was tough. 😀
Lol. I learned this not too long ago. Apparently Satanists use the upside down cross as one of their symbols, but they obviously don't know their history or religions. They use as sort of a mock towards Christianity, but if they knew anything of the religion they're mocking, they would know that, HEY, the freaking pope has an upside down cross on his chair!!! The upside down cross represents Peter, the disciple Jesus put in place of setting up his church on earth. When Peter was crucified, he requested to be crucified upside down because he felt he wasn't worthy to be crucified right side up like Jesus had been.
