If I Could Have A Beer With Jesus, There Are 6 Things I Would Ask Him

Thomas Rhett had some good questions to ask Jesus if he ever got the chance, but I've got a few more to add.

If I Could Have A Beer With Jesus, There Are 6 Things I Would Ask Him

If you know me well enough, you know that I very rarely listen to country music. My music taste is really all over the place; Eminem, One Direction (my phase is still not quite over), my girl Cardi B, and even Bon Jovi. However, spending nearly a week with my cousins and their roommate, country music has definitely entered the playlist.

A debate sparked up between us on what the "best country song of all time" is, and it came down to Dierks Bentley's "People Are Crazy," and Thomas Rhett's "Beer With Jesus." I know Bentley's song by heart, but I had never heard Rhett's and hearing it for the first time left me speechless (a very hard thing to do).

The debate was settled and now every time I play my music, I make sure that song is one of the first to be played.

As this week approached, I had wondered what I would ask Jesus if I ever had the pleasure to have a drink with him. After a long night of thinking, I came up with a list of questions to ask.

1. Why do dogs, and animals in general, have such short lives?

We all know this would be my first question. The loss of my dog was one of the biggest struggles I had faced, so why couldn't he have lived just a little bit longer?

2. Why does cancer exist?

I couldn't imagine the gut-wrenching feeling of hearing the words, "You have cancer." I know of people, friends who have had to go through this and it breaks my heart. With all of the other diseases in this world, why do we have one that is incurable?

3. Have I made you proud?

I know that I've probably driven him crazy a few times in my life. I've probably made him laugh quite a bit too, but, it's much more important for me to know if I've made him proud in the life I am living.

4. When are you going to introduce me to my husband?

My mom has heard me ask both God and Jesus this question very frequently... more like daily, but who's keeping track? As I've mentioned before, I haven't had the best luck with guys (even though I already have my wedding planned), and I'm ready to finally meet the man he has made for me.

5. Can everyone in Heaven see everything happening on Earth?

Is it possible for my grandfather, my great grandparents and is it even possible for my dog to see what I'm doing on a daily basis? Or can they see me on the big days in my life, such as my graduation?

6. In the words of Thomas Rhett, "How'd you turn the other cheek to save a sorry soul like me?"

Everyone sins, and I am certainly no exception. I pray as often as I can for forgiveness from him; but how does he forgive sins so quickly?

I know that all of my questions will be answered at some point in time, whether it be next week, next year, or even after I go to Heaven. But, if I ever do get the pleasure to meet Jesus at a bar one late night, these are the questions I would be sure to ask him as long as I'm not completely speechless; who wouldn't be if Jesus was sitting right in front of them?

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
