24 Jack is Back!

I may have an healthy obsession with the show 24. I don't know why cause the situations they get into and the dumb ways the get out are pretty much not realistic. They really are for the most part impossible, but I love it and can't get enough. This like most things in life got me thinking....hmmmmmm impossible situations with impossible solutions, sounds familiar like I've heard this story before. Oh yeah that's right it's called the Bible. Now God isn't crawling his way through a heat duct and getting cell phone service even though I can't seem to get it in my office, but he does do some awesome stuff that is impossible.

First off he created everything in seven days. I consider myself to be a little on the creative side but i could not come up with half the stuff on this planet, not to mention all the other planets and solar systems. Have you ever watched the show Planet Earth? It's on the Discovery channel, 278 if you have Direct TV. Anyways they went all around the world filming everywhere from oceans, deserts, and caves. They came across some very specifically designed creatures living in some very impossible places to live. For example there's a cave I think it was in South America that has a steam of Hydrochloric acid flowing through it and there are these fish that live in it. They only life in this cave and can only survive under these conditions. I don't know about you but I would think it impossible for anything to survive in a river of acid but not God.

Second he always loves us no matter what. I don't know about you but people tend to annoy me on a daily basis. But not God no matter how many mistakes we make he forgives and loves us. He did this through sending his only son here to die on a cross to be the one sacrifice to forgive us all. Once again this is where God separates himself. I love and in fact like a whole bunch of people, but I wouldn't sacrifice my daughter for any of them or if your reading this you. Now I might sacrifice my own life but never my daughters. Here's why and this is what makes it so amazing. Take away the fact that God loves his son, he had to live like us go through the same things as us, die a painful death for the ones he loved, he also had to die that death for the ones who hated him, and the ones who would never believe in him. That's crazy death for people who will never care.

The third and final thing I'll talk about are the miracles he does. Whether it's healing a cancer patient that the doctors say has no chance to live, bring a baby back to life even though by all accounts it should be dead, or just providing food for a struggling family God does the impossible on a daily basis.

So go Jack Bauer, keep downloading the schematics to your pda in 3 seconds when i know there's no 3g network available. But more importantly go God the real Jack Bauer making the impossible possible.
