I know what you're thinking...

"This guy is full of it"

But hear me out. I was taking the subway home today and noticed two dubious looking fellows out of the corner of my eye. One of them then approached me and asked if I had a cigarette. I sternly said no because I don't smoke and never will. After staring me down for a few seconds he walked back to his friend. I assume he thought I was lying. So there I was, my heart racing, knowing I might have to defend myself if worst comes to worst. I noticed them staring at me, saying something to eachother. So I just put my head down and put it in god's hands. I said a quick prayer and when I opened my eyes they had left.

Just a small example. Have a little faith, and good things will happen for you..

No, that's called walking off. Jeez, if people attribute things as simple as this to god, then that's just crazy... You're right, I was thinking that, and now I've read your post, I think it even more.

Or maybe they went away because they wanted to find some other geezer and ask him for cigarettes?

Don't waste God's time with things like that, reserve your prayers for things like horse racing and poker games.

It shows how truly pathetic your life is if you attribute something so trivial to Jesus...Mods, please, for the love of humanity, dont moderate me for that--it's important and needs to be said.

Wow, just how sheltered of a life do you live to think that people in the subway want to mug you? The guy only wanted a cig, he asked you, you told him you didn't smoke, he went back to his friend and probably said "damn, the kid doesn't have any. Guess I'll just have to wait till I can find a store", then they left to go to wherever it was they were going (they're in the subway remember?).

I sternly said no because I don't smoke and never will.Boogie_J

He was just telling his buddy what an a-hole you are. I agree with them. A polite "sorry dude, I don't have any" would've been a better response.

So a guy who looks tough asks you for a cigarette, you don't have it, he leaves and God saves you?

Today my teacher asked me for my homework, I didn't have it and he said I can give it in next time. PRAISE JESUS!

OMFG Jesus saved me too!!!!!

I was playing counterstrike source right, trying to rescue some hostages from their offices (im sure they're god fearing christians) then all of a sudden these dirty muslim terrorists jump out of nowhere and begin shooting n stuff. so im like, "jesus please lend me a gun" and i turn around, and there was this fresh M4A1 just sitting in a hallway.

so i pick up the gun, turn on my H@x and boom-headshot their hole team.

JESUS H@X0r FTW!!!

I had a nightmare one time, a church-goer found OT, and went to church with a message of the day or something. And they made it a missionary mission to spread the word of god via message board invasion. I think I woke up when the computer froze.

Look, I'm not some fanatical christian, I'm just trying to spread some postitivity around here

All I ever see are threads on trying to disprove god and pro-athiesm and just all around negative threads. Do you know how harmful that could be to a kid growing up that's posting on here? I would know because I was an athiest as a young teen before I found God. My story was just a small example...I sensed I was in danger and the moment I put it in god's hands, everything turned out fine. What's so crazy about that??

I think the concept of Hell is much more harmful to a child's mind than reason, logic, and reality ever could be.

Listen man, I believe in Jehovah, but attributing something so unbelievably insignificant to the most powerful being in the universe is irrational and, frankly, paranoid and slightly crazy.

I understand that you are just trying to spread some positivity here, but the way you are talking makes you sound like some sort of Dark Age zealot who blames a pothole in the road on satan.

Yeah? Check this out. I went down to the Dinning Hall about 45 minutes ago and I saw that there were alot of people in the line for Pasta. I remember from around 12:30 that they had a Popcorn Chicken Parmesian special. I said 'I sure hope they still have some popcorn chicken!' And by golly, they did! Hail Jebus!

See? That's what you sound like.
