What were you expecting?

I learned some great things in church today.
  One of them was about marriage.
The speaker thought he had found the perfect girl. Then he went on a missions trip and she was with someone else.
  He then asked us if any of us found someone perfect would they want us?
Not a single hand was raised.
  So I beg the question; especially for those of us who are married;
  Are we expecting too much from our spouse?
  Many people blame Eve for the fall of the human race. But I say, couldn't Adam just have said no? Ever since then women seem to have been second class citizens.
  My point is that no one is perfect.
 Do we expect too much of ourselves?
Do we take our failures out on others?
  Maybe at work the pressure our bosses feel makes them cranky even if we go above and beyond the call of duty.
  If you mess up say I'm sorry.
If our spouse or kids foul things up instead of yelling say, oh well we can try to fix it. And then maybe hug it out.
Because despite my flaws I'm hoping God will say well done good and faithful servant when I get to Heaven.

Crazy?

Some people are convinced that Jesus was just a crazy person. Same for his mother who claimed to be a virgin.
  Maybe he knew the scriptures and found ways to back it up.
   History says that he performed miracles.
Although some say he was a fraud and history is full of lies or at least half truths.
    Certainly crazy people have had huge impacts on the world.
   But here's my take.
    So what if he was crazy?
    And yes people have twisted his message and even killed in the Name of Jesus.
But I'm convinced that Jesus saved my soul. I believe his mother was a virgin.
I believe that Jesus was without sin.
He was killed for what he believed about himself and his mission from God.
  I believe his sacrifice alone will get me into Heaven.
  I may not be a terrible person but I'm not perfect.
Praying to God through Jesus had saved me in ways to numerous to count.
 Faith in Jesus can save you too. Some say he is the only way to eternal life.
  It works for me.
So call me crazy but can all of us who follow Jesus be wrong?
 I encourage you to try God, especially if nothing else is working.
