We are all going to meet him someday and Bruce you can ask him if he ever had a stocker. He probably had the fastest one under the index ever, probably a Ford! LOL

So an avid racer named John meets his demise unexpectedly in an accident. He awakes at the Pearly Gates and is warmly greeted by Saint Peter, who tells him he has become the owner of a pristine Hemi Cuda. It then gets better as they together take the car to a beautiful drag strip so John can race to his heart’s content. But John is taken back by a long sleek dragster with no markings other than “Big Daddy”. John immediately asks Peter when Don Garlits had passed away because he had not heard such sad news. Peter quickly explains though; “oh, that’s just God, he just likes to think of himself as Big Daddy”.

Personally, I’m very thankful God has a good sense of humor. It explains so much.

Prayer is talking to GOD from your heart in Love . If you dont know what to do you need to know where to go ? To GOD ! HE is the author and finisher of our Faith. HE LOVED US FIRST before we ever knew HIM, JESUS CHRIST. .

This thought often comes to me; I hope in the future I learn what God was thinking when she created the universe.
I do believe in God. As a racer who entered my fourth quarter (75) last year I also believe in karma. I'll explain;
I've learned to never complain about bad luck, because so often I have found when things happen that just don't seem fair, not too long after that a stoke of good luck or call it karma, fills in that former perceived unfairness.
As we all know, this covid-19 is not the first pandemic or plague that our world has gone through. I suspect that when these plagues happen it may be natures way of pushing back to an imbalance in the world. I believe mankind cannot continue on the current path that ignores what nature is trying to do to protect ALL life that we share this world with. We are all connected.
My final thought is this message; patience is always rewarded, and if we can all accept that we need to set aside, for a while, our life's passion, until we find the answer we need to overcome this plaque our children and all earth's life will in the final counting be rewarded.

[QUOTE=ghost;614818]sorry for me but, i don't believe in a god. There is too much injustice in this world

It actually takes more faith to believe there is no God that created all of the earth, humans, animals, insects, birds, fish, trees, flowers the whole science and the order of things in this world and how it all works too some kind of accident. God created this world to have NO injustice. Adam and Eve were made sinless, this world was first created to be perfect but they chose to go against God, they had freewill and sinned in the Garden of Eden and from that day forward every human was born a sinner. Hence all the injustice and evil in this world. So to save His creation and not let us all die and be damned forever, because He is a perfect and all loving God, He sent His perfect and sinless Son Jesus to die for my sins, your sins and every persons sins. His death and blood, shed on the cross, covers everyone's sins past, present and future. All God is asking us to do is believe His son Jesus is who He says He is, and that He took OUR place and died for all of our sins. And when we die, we ALL will, whoever that believes will be with God in Heaven and a new earth that He will set up with no more crying, pain, injustice and hurt. Just like it was meant to be from the beginning. Amen! Okay church is over. Sorry my fingers just started typing and I couldn't stop them. LOL
