Name one positive thing that GOD did?

People said God negative this and that...

Is there anything positive that GOD has done for us?

Name one.

If you want, name 10 things.

God gaveth nothing to you, Gemtun.

God did not give you health, your genes and lifestyle gave you health.

God did not give you your beautiful kids, you had sex.

God did not give you your life, your parents created you.

God did not give you faith, you developed faith.

God did not give you your future husband, you chose to keep him.

It's that simple. So sad that people credit too much to an imaginary deity.

Ten Guidelines From God

Effective Immediately,
please be aware that there are changes YOU need
to make in YOUR life. These changes need to be
completed in order that I may fulfill My promises
to you to grant you peace, joy and happiness in
this life. I apologize for any inconvenience,
but after all that I am doing, this seems very
little to ask of you. Please, follow
these 10 guidelines


1. QUIT WORRYING:
Life has dealt you a blow and all you do is sit
and worry. Have you forgotten that I am here
to take all your burdens and carry them for you?
Or do you just enjoy fretting over every little
thing that comes your way?


2. PUT IT ON THE LIST:
Something needs done or taken care of. Put it
on the list. No, not YOUR list. Put it on MY
to-do-list. Let ME be the one to take care
of the problem. I can't help you until you turn
it over to Me. And although My to-do-list
is long, I am after all... God. I can take care
of anything you put into My hands. In fact,
if the truth were ever really known, I take
care of a lot of things for you that you never
even realize.


3. TRUST ME:
Once you've given your burdens to Me,
quit trying to take them back. Trust in
Me. Have the faith that I will take care of
all your needs, your problems and your trials.
Problems with the kids? Put them on My list.
Problem with finances? Put it on My list.
Problems with your emotional roller coaster?
For My sake, put it on My list. I want to
help you. All you have to do is ask.

4. LEAVE IT ALONE:
Don't wake up one morning and say,
"Well, I'm feeling much stronger now, I think
I can handle it from here." Why do you think
you are feeling stronger now? It's simple.
You gave Me your burdens and I'm taking
care of them. I also renew your strength
and cover you in my peace. Don't you
know that if I give you these problems back,
you will be right back where you started?
Leave them with Me and forget about
them. Just let Me do my job.

5. TALK TO ME:
I want you to forget a lot of things.
Forget what was making you crazy.
Forget the worry and the fretting because
you know I'm in control. But there's one
thing I pray you never forget. Please, don't
forget to talk to Me - OFTEN! I love YOU!
I want to hear your voice. I want you to
include Me in on the things going on in your life.
I want to hear you talk about your friends
and family. Prayer is simply you having
a conversation with Me. I want to be your
dearest friend.

6. HAVE FAITH:
I see a lot of things from up here that you
can't see from where you are. Have faith in
Me that I know what I'm doing. Trust Me;
you wouldn't want the view from My eyes.
I will continue to care for you, watch over you,
and meet your needs. You only have to trust Me.
Although I have a much bigger task than you,
it seems as if you have so much trouble just
doing your simple part. How hard can trust be?

7. SHARE:
You were taught to share when you were
only two years old. When did you forget?
That rule still applies. Share with those who are
less fortunate than you. Share your joy with
those who need encouragement. Share your
laughter with those who haven't heard any in
such a long time. Share your tears with those
who have forgotten how to cry. Share your faith
with those who have none.

8. BE PATIENT:
I managed to fix it so in just one lifetime
you could have so many diverse experiences.
You grow from a child to an adult, have children,
change jobs many times, learn many trades,
travel to so many places, meet thousands
of people, and experience so much. How can
you be so impatient then when it takes Me
a little longer than you expect to handle
something on My to-do-list? Trust in My
timing, for My timing is perfect. Just
because I created the entire universe in
only six days, everyone thinks I should
always rush, rush, rush.

9. BE KIND:
Be kind to others, for I love them just
as much as I love you. They may not dress
like you, or talk like you, or live the same way
you do, but I still love you all. Please try
to get along, for My sake. I created each
of you different in some way. It would be
too boring if you were all identical.
Please, know I love each of your differences.!

10. LOVE YOURSELF:
As much as I love you, how can you not
love yourself? You were created by me for
one reason only -- to be loved, and to love
in return. I am a God of Love. Love Me.
Love your neighbors. But also love yourself.
It makes My heart ache when I see you
so angry with yourself when things go
wrong. You are very precious to me.
Don't ever forget......
Note: I received this from a friend and I have
no idea who wrote it, but I was so touched
by it, that I had to share it with you.
I hope that you will be blessed by
it and will share it with others.

There's so much good about God and thankful for. I thank the Lord for girls I have and I gave my girls and myself to Him. He's been faithful, patiences. Even trying times I face, He's with me. Thru my failures, He's keeps encouraging me like a parents shout when I'm in a track me and say, you can do it. Keep going. There's so much good about Him. Most above all, IS His so much Love by sending His So, Jesus to die on the cross to take our place upon Himself, so He can carry us across Jordan River into the Promise Land, which is call Heaven and be with Him forever. Inspite we face challenge against Hittites, Bablylonians, Egyptians, Caananites, Syrians and many oppositions. God still wait for the few more to be with us to worship our Yahweh, Jehovah God. Praise God, the Father, the Son-Jesus and the Comforter- Holy Spirit.

God gave us our very existance. Without God, there would be nothing. No universe, no life.

God offers eternal life, peace and joy within, and security.

He saved me out of the miry pit of sin.

He has provided with me with abundant grace and blessings.

Cool

Name one thing God did that's good? Wow! Let me start with salvation: "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn it, but to save it." That, my friend, is as good as it gets and doesn't get any better.

He brought me back to life after my brief death. My time was not up then.
He protects us everyday.
He loves us so much.
He guides me and taught me alot about Him and myself.
He works always around us even we do not know or see it.
He heals us even we do not know or see it.
He has always be here for us.
He answered my prayers many times.
He is patient with me.
He is waiting for me.

Well, I'm not going to say anything since I haven't really seen proof that God did "this" or "that".

Bible KJV Ecclesiastes 3:1-17 AMEN!


1 To every [thing there is] a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
2 A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up [that which is] planted;
3 A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;
4 A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
5 A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
6 A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
7 A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
8 A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.
9 What profit hath he that worketh in that wherein he laboureth?
10 I have seen the travail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it.
11 He hath made every [thing] beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.
12 I know that [there is] no good in them, but for [a man] to rejoice, and to do good in his life.
13 And also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy the good of all his labour, it [is] the gift of God.
14 I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth [it], that [men] should fear before him.
15 That which hath been is now; and that which is to be hath already been; and God requireth that which is past.
16 And moreover I saw under the sun the place of judgment, [that] wickedness [was] there; and the place of righteousness, [that] iniquity [was] there.
17 I said in mine heart, God shall judge the righteous and the wicked: for [there is] a time there for every purpose and for every work.

If God exist then God must know everything before we actually do it. That means God will have to wipe Osama Bin Laden off the earth before Osama Bin Laden ordered WTC to be attacked. hmm? someone said he's all seeing all knowing all powerful in other word Omnipresent.

Don't bother to preach me.. I don't have and free from religion. I do not burden myself anything related to religion. So therefore I am Seclar Humanist.

Have a great weekend! Do not worry about God. I don't! Whoo!

You are preaching us against Him. I do not come here to preach u but to share my love with others who share same thing with me, not u or another who hate God/Godless.

I used to be agnostic so I know what u were talking about but leave us alone with our own God.

Be peace with u.

As King David and other prophets asked God, why your people suffered so much, while the wicked (human philosphies, living in sin in free way of living instead of battle and deal with their own sin). God answered, they can have pleasure, but wait and see what happen to their end. My people suffer only for shortwhile. If God try to wipe Osama out before hit WTC, then God should wiped Goliath out so King David don't have to worry about slingshots. We are not living perfect world, this world is full of sins and rebellions, this is not sinless world. I have hear how human theories wipe God out and claiming there is no God and have their own wisdom and I see they don't ever get it but trust their own feelings, what they see and stuff, but proof hasn't come for them. Proof will come to the end and inspite, of unbelief, it won't change a thing. Its very very regrettable to try to avoid the Truth. Even tho, no use to say anything you want and nothing wrong by saying against christians and blaming on christians. I have already read some post by denying that you are against christians and hating them and stereotyping against christians and try to keep christians mouth shut while non christians continue jabbering against christians and mock. Inspite of that, I stick with the Truth and fact of who God is and who Jesus is.

The ten guidances from God assumes that you believe in such a being.

You can have a parent do all that for you. You can have a lover do all that for you.

God healed me once when I was a baby and I had a hole in my heart and my mom prayed to Jesus Christ and God healed my heart. The doctor said that can't be. I Thank God Abba Father for healing my heart when I was a baby or I would not be here.

He created light.

He created souls that have bodies and a spiritual consciousness.
(how they choose to believe that is their free choice)!

He created fruits and vegetables and salt and water and animals and rocks.

He created the trees to help ground us from the electrical currents running through the grounds and air that man has created.

He created herbs and flowers for the animals and for us and the rocks.

He created Earth with a Spirit and it's guardian is Humanity!
(We're still learning that one, just because most people don't tell the gov't what they should be doing!)

Guys looks either way god or no god...its better to have something to believe on because if you have nothing to believe in, then how can you accomplish something? and plus you never know...there may be a god out there or maybe there isnt no god out there....the thing is that nobody knows so how can some one say something but saying it while you not 100% sure?? Think about that and let it sink in and think long before you form your opinion and also be sure that you are 100 percent sure!
