Rob Bell - Nooma 020 Shells.

Today in school during Chapel in our individual classes, we saw this video and it gave a really strong message to me and perhaps many other Christians too. I don't know how many people disapprove of this pastor and why they dislike his doctrines. However, one thing I've re learnt for sure is that I need to let go of the less important things like Internet games and spend more time with God, fulfilling my most important purpose in life. I don't know if people disagree with me, but we are in fact created by God for His pleasure. It's like a lonely lady planting trees so that she can enjoy her days with them. And since we are created by God, we shouldn't feel weird that God should control our lives instead of us controlling our lives with our ways. Many of us like to have freedom. The real freedom to achieve is by letting God control your lives. This may seem weird again to some as it seems that we would be like robots working in a factory for God. Most of us don't like the word "control". But ya know, this is not true. If a child disobeys her mother by telling lies, she would get into trouble. However, if she listens to her mother, she would not be in trouble. Simple to understand? Hope skeptics don't see this as some propaganda, hypnotising, or whatever. Besides, God doesn't fully control our lives. We are interdependent on Him.
