so the last blog actually helped me out but either way just ignore what my gf said anyway... what i want to write in this entry is that everything happens for a reason just as the last blog because if it wasn't for that then i would not have anything else to write about but... love the people around you thank god for having the people who you have a relationship with because God put them there in your life. as Francis Chan says how crazy is laughter that god gave us that to have to laugh with someone else or wake up in the morning with the person you love next to you. God put them there for a reason and he wants us to love one another and to appreciate the things we feel and the relationships he puts in out lives. whether its our mothers we take care of us while we are babies to our lovers who are our best friends who we can laugh and share the little things in life. how awesome is that to feel love or to feel happiness the relationships we have with people in our lives we have to appreciate them and to thank God for them because they could be gone at any moment and we are blessed to have them in our lives at all. so if you ever read this tell someone you love that You love them and that God loves them more.
God Is beyond our minds yet closer then anyone could ever be to you :)

Casper Oliver is a...............golf caddy with a dirty shirt. he looks like abum and smells like one too. and............... i dont know. hes gonn afail this assignment cuz he doesnt kniow what to write so im writting it for him but im pretty sure whaever i write isnt going to help his grade so hes screwwed either way. he better think of something to wirite before i keep going.... hint hint. cough cough......
so what makes us living?
In class there was a question that was raised that cought my attention and it was what makes us human?
i seen a movie with Robin Williams about a robot who wanted to be Human he didnt want to live life as a machine or as someones property so he wanted to become human. he recieved a skin upgrade to a artificial heart upgrade to having fluid like blood in his system but he was not considered human he had all the organs put into his body. he was able to smell,feel and taste but was brought up a piece of metal so is he human? does he have a soul? well see this question comes up in today's world with stuff like stem cell research and abortion with what when do we consider someone human? or what makes us human. if you check out the structure off a dead body and a human body, there exactly the same.
at bible study we were talking about how lifes before finding christ and finding god and it is said that if it isnt for god then its worth nothing also that before we found Christ in our lives we were spiritly dead. the walking dead because if you think about it people or do not believe in our lord and saviour will end up dead as fallowers of christ in the lord shall have eternal everlasting life. so technically we are all dead unless we stop our sinning and turn to God just let him take control. we all have souls but what happens to them is up to us. so when i hear a robot trying to be human or a clone consider a poor creature then i can relate to that because at one point in my life i was just spiritly dead. i was just a creature or the walking dead. what makes us human is a different conversation because you can say a clone of spem and an egg put an artificial womb or a surrogate and then born to grow up to be a donor for other beings then you wonder are they human? do they have a sould too. some people consider the embryo as when the soul starts or when it is born. but if we stop the sperm and stop the egg from ever meeting then doesnt that prevent a soul from creating? so are we killing the baby before its being created. it is all to complicated to understand even for me to comprehend. all i know is that if a person was a clone and found Christ as our savior i believe, in my opinion, that they have a better chance of entering in the kingdom then a person who is the walking dead.

John 20:24-29
24 Now Thomas (also known as Didymus[a]), one of the Twelve, was not with the disciples when Jesus came. 25 So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord!”
But he said to them, “Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe.”
26 A week later his disciples were in the house again, and Thomas was with them. Though the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you!” 27 Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe.”
28 Thomas said to him, “My Lord and my God!”
29 Then Jesus told him, “Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”
As believers in Christ or people who are not believers in Christ theres always going to be that one person who wants evidence or some kinda proof of seeing before they believe. When we talk about the bible or when we talk about God people dont understand what were talking about. some people see what were talking about but because they dont see a big man with a white beard in front of them they dont believe in God. which is a good reason too but theres a better reason to Fallow Christ because God wants us to read his book and to believe before we see anything. he wants us to fallow his word and see his glory before we are with him because its better to read a definition and understand what a word means before we see what the definition is we get a better understanding and we get the better picture of what the word is about. if he just showed himself right now in life in our lifes then it would be to easy there would be no grace or no miracles. actions speak louder then words. and also despite the fact his only son came to earth and rose from the dead is enough as it is

one of my fav's
John 20:11-16
11 Now Mary stood outside the tomb crying. As she wept, she bent over to look into the tomb 12 and saw two angels in white, seated where Jesus’ body had been, one at the head and the other at the foot.
13 They asked her, “Woman, why are you crying?”
“They have taken my Lord away,” she said, “and I don’t know where they have put him.” 14 At this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but she did not realize that it was Jesus.
15 He asked her, “Woman, why are you crying? Who is it you are looking for?”
Thinking he was the gardener, she said, “Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will get him.”
16 Jesus said to her, “Mary.”
She turned toward him and cried out in Aramaic, “Rabboni!” (which means “Teacher”).
this is one of my fav passages because we have all been here but we have not all ended up where Mary has. We all have lost someone very dear to us as if they have been taken from us or have been gone from us but in this passage Jesus is right there with Mary and says to her "Mary" this gets me a little emotional because here Jesus calls to her and gives her comfort that he has risen. He is ok. Everything is ok just as he promised. The Lord sometimes we feel he has taken from us and sometimes we cry and were lost but we should never forget that Jesus has promised us that we will not die if we believe in him and that we shall not suffer death for the lord overcomes Death...

He is Risen
This past Sunday was Easter sunday which was a great beautiful day. I went to Pastor Rays Church which he had a beautiful service praise be to the lord. and what struck out to me was the person who played to the guitar had explained. He is risen... Jesus Also raised lazarus from the dead but he still ended up dieing in the end (lazarus) so Lazarus was risen. which is in the past. something that happened and ended. just like a friend. if you havnt talked in a while he/she is still your friend so he/she is your friend but if something happens say an arguement then that person was your friend. present and past. it is and on going event. Jesus Is Risen... He still lives. it is an on going occurence.
