Okay.....

Sometimes I hate text forwards.  I like the funny ones.  And even some of the sentimental ones.  Until I get to send this on to ten people or death and destruction shall befall you.

And the religious ones get on my nerves when I am told that I am being tested.  I know my Heavenly Father loves me and cares about me but I really dont think he cares whether or not I forward a text message.  I understand the scripture found in Matt. 10: 33  "But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven." I firmly believe this scripture.  But I also don't believe that if I fail to send one text message (or any of the hundreds I have received like it) that I will be doomed to hell. He tries and tests us.  Of that I have no doubt but I really don't think that this is how He will decide our eternal fate.  In fact I know it is not the yardstick He measures us by.

As for the other ones, they irritate me too.  When I get a message saying that the one I am supposed to marry will kiss me tonight but only if I send this to ten people, it just gets on my nerves.  And when I get the ones that tell how good of a friend I am by how many roses I receive I NEVER forward them. Does this negligent act make me a bad friend?  I think not.  And the ones which ask how hot I think the sender is get ignored too.  Especially when they come from an ex of any kind.  This is admittedly what annoys me most of all!
