Cornbread

By Ryan, December 14, 2006

Cornbread just may be one of the nastiest foods known to man. It could have been used to win the Civil War; throwing it at the North or feeding it to the North... either way, we’d’ve had ’em* beat. However, it is a fun word to yell at younger boy scouts, a fact that has earned me the nickname “cornbread.”

Over Thanksgiving, when I was in Tulsa, my little cousin heard about this and decided to use his Darth Sidious voice to tell me that I “don’t know the power of the cornbread.” (I even went so far as to find other places to hide the word.)

My point in all of this is that my cousin loves me. (I also mentioned this in a previous post.) He seems to all but idolize me, which--as great as my friends are--is a rarity in my life. And there is no obligation for him to love me. Just like we have no obligation to love God. He gave us free will so that we wouldn’t be friggin’ puppets. Based on the way my little cousin makes me feel with his affection toward me, I think that God must be ecstatic to know that we really love Him given the choice not to.

So, how do you think He feels when we don’ spread His love, therefore condemning His creations to hell? I’ll admit, I used to be a bad influence on my friends, but with that in mind... it’s, in essence, robbing God to not spread His Message. That mindset has helped me avoid sin more than once... a little tip for some of you who might need it.

By the way, anyone who read and liked my cornbread quotes is welcome to leave more for me in a comment.
