Jesus on Marriage in Heaven

Well I was reading the bible this morning, and I came across some interestng stuff. It made me kinda sad actually. I talked to one of my co-workers about it today too, and she said the same kinda stuff that’s in the bible. Here’s the passage.

Marriage at the Resurrection

23That same day the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to him with a question. 24″Teacher,” they said, “Moses told us that if a man dies without having children, his brother must marry the widow and have children for him. 25Now there were seven brothers among us. The first one married and died, and since he had no children, he left his wife to his brother. 26The same thing happened to the second and third brother, right on down to the seventh. 27Finally, the woman died. 28Now then, at the resurrection, whose wife will she be of the seven, since all of them were married to her?”
29Jesus replied, “You are in error because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God. 30At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven.

So yeah, basically this is saying that marriage is just for here on earth. When we die and go to heaven, we won’t be married (well, we’re considered the bride of Christ, and we’ll be married to Him). Anyways, it just made me think about how I wouldn’t be married to the person I will be married to here on earth. It made me kind of sad. I have hopes of marrying someone, and having children, as long as the Lord doesn’t come back first, but at the same time, this makes me sad that the person I would spend my years with on earth, and share my inmost self with, wouldn’t be “married” to me in heaven. My co-worker brought up that we wouldn’t be sad about it at all in heaven, and that we would be pre-occupied with worshipping our Lord, which is true, but I dunno, my heart would want to love my wife as well. It’s kinda confusing I guess. Just my thoughts for today. Feel free to post your thoughts on this subject as well.

current mood: thought provoked

After the Rain….

Hah, dunno why I had that title. Think it was just because I was listening to a Third Day CD in the car on the way to the meeting. Well it’s WAAY past the meeting now, but yeah….hah. I came back, went to sleep, then woke back up, and have been working on things. Here goes some things that happened today that I’ll post on.

7:22, the bible study that I talk about a lot in Atlanta, GA has brought their worship back on their webcasts!!! Whooo. I ALWAYS used to listen to it each week and get new songs from them. It was there I first heard the song “Our Love is Loud” by David Crowder, and this was back in September. hehe. On a sad note about 722, Candi Pearson, one of the lead worshippers there will be leaving to do more work with the high school group there at North Point Community Church. So all the people at 722 and people like me online won’t be able to hear her lovely singing voice each week anymore. =( booo.

I’m trying to think of ideas for the website…hah. The current idea will probably be scrapped, or used as the Non-Flash version or something. I’m trying to find some cool sites as well for learning Flash, hit me up with a comment if you know any good sites.

I also added something called CQ Counter, which is pretty cool. I can see the IP addresses of people who come here now. And it actually looks like I’ve been getting quite a few hits. Says some people from stripey.net have come by, and some people from Christianguitar.ws. Cool. Hello. =P

So that post about my birthday will probably wait another day or so, hah. I’m so lazy.

Tonight over at CBCSJ (Chinese Baptist Church of San Jose) they’ll be a praise night put on by Phileo fellowship, the college group of that church. Visit CBCSJ.org for driving directions. It starts at…7pm I think (hah, I dunno, they just tell me be there at 4, so yeah…I dunno what time is actually starts). Should be a good night. I’m leading worship along with another guy Kinson from the church. He asked me to lead back in like summer, so yeah, a long time ago. hehe.

So yeah, CBCSJ at 7pm, Be there or be an octagon!  

7:30 Work Meetings Kill Me

hah, well here I am before my work meeting. Gosh it’s early. I almost didn’t get out of bed. It makes it worse that I only had about 5 hours of sleep. But now atleast I sit around and get lectured for about an hour and a half and get paid like 10$ for it….heh. 

Yesterday’s Events

So yesterday was my birthday, and a lot of other stuff are coming up this weekend, but I’ll do a post about that later. The previous post about OneDay I wrote on a message board about 2 minutes ago, and just decided to make it a journal post as well. w00t. Cool. I’m stoked. TEXAS!! w00t.

current mood: stoked

Passion, OneDay03, May 24th-27th

Hey, it was announced today on the OneDayLink, as well as on the oneday03 website (which I don’t have off hand right now, doh, go to 268generation.com though). It’s gonna be in SHERMAN, TEXAS!!! Whoooohoooo!!! I’m going to Texas finally!!!

I just got off the phone with Lisa about…20 minutes ago, and I was telling her how they were going to say on the Link where it was going to be, and I was hoping it would be in Texas, cuz I’ve always wanted to visit. BTW: Sherman, TX is on the north part, about an hour north of Dallas. Whooohooo!!

So yeah, I’ll be there in May, probably on the 23rd or 24th, or as soon as my last final ends, I’ll be on a plane out there. Anyone want to pick me up from the airport, and share a tent with me? I was too lonely last time I went, cuz I was the only person I knew who was going from my church, my fellowship, and pretty much, I went alone, knowing that God wanted me to go. =) I had a great time though. So yeah, man, I wish May would get here fast! whoohoo! TEXAS HERE I COME!
