out picture of me and my oldest son on the link
below.

My
Mom was trying to talk to my little brother Shane
about God and my brother said, "Well Mom, if
God loves us so much, why doesn't he use his
powers to make us love him and be a good
Christian?"
My Mom said, "Shane let's just suppose you
had the same powers as God and you saw this fine
looking girl that you wanted as a girlfriend, but
you knew that she would never have anything to do
with you. So you used your powers and made her
like and do what you wanted.
"Every day that you were with her you would
be thinking, 'She really doesn't like me, and she
really wouldn't be here or act this way if I
hadn't made her.' Every time you thought about
her, you would know that her heart was not in
you, but she only loved you because you made her
love you. It would begin to dwell and eat at your
mind so much that you would no longer want her
with you because it wasn't from her heart. You
would want her to truly Love you from her heart
--and believe me, you wouldn't want it any other
way.
"God will not make you do what you don't
want to do. Can you imagine Loving someone so
much that you can let them go? God does love us
that much and gives us a choice.
"I bet you would want a choice if some girl
picked you and you didn't want to be with her."
My brother then said, "Well why will we go
to hell forever if he loves us so much?"
My Mom said, "Shane if you knew that you
were going to hell for 100 years or a 1,000
years, but at least you would get out, then you
would probably continue the devil's way of life.
Don't you see, Shane, God had to make it forever
because people would say, "Well at least I
would eventually get out."
"God knows your heart and your future. He's
knows if you will change. And if you couldn't
make that decision for him on earth, then you
never would--and if you did it wouldn't be from
your heart. It would be because he put you in a
spot and made you love him."
God says if you deny me on earth, I will deny you
in Heaven. A friend of mine died in a car wreck
and he was drinking. It upset my Mom and she
thought, what if that would have been one of my
sons?"
My Mom asked God, "Now God, why did you let
that young boy get killed in a car wreck? Why
didn't you save him? Maybe later in life, God, he
would have changed."
God spoke to my Mother and told her, "Because
I knew he would never change."
You see God knew that boy's future and knew he
would never change. God doesn't kill, but the
devil does. And when you live a life of sin you
will have to pay the consequences.
Remember you are very special to God as His
precious child. He has promised to complete the
good work he has begun in you.
Please take time out for God and thank him for
all the great things here on earth he gave us to
enjoy. If God can take the time out to think
about us and make the time for us, then we need
to take time out for him.
Think about the person that you love the most of
all. Think about how you would feel if you gave
them all these wonderful gifts-- quality time,
good listener, a wonderful place to live, etc...
How would you feel if they couldn't take time out
for you, and were ungrateful for all you had
done?
We get excited and can't wait for that certain
time that our favorite television show comes on.
We can get excited over other things, but not for
God. I wonder how God would feel if we showed
that kind of excitement for him. We remember to
do all kinds of things and yet forget about the
Greatest of all, God, the one that will be there
for you always.
My friend Marty said, "Stop, close your eyes
and think of all the wonderful things around you.
Thank him and tell him how much you love him. Ask
him to guide you through the day."
Let me tell you it's a great feeling!
Thank you God for helping me to write this
testimony, and thank you God for the people
reading it. And thank you, God, for my Dad, Mom,
family, and friends that have stood behind me.
