If God Had A Tinder

Would you swipe right?

If God Had A Tinder

As Christians, we take comfort in knowing that there is a God who loves us unconditionally. As millennials, we take comfort in knowing we can find a spouse through an app. For those of you who don't know, Tinder is an app that allows people to meet potential dates in their area. After viewing their picture, swipe right if you'd like to chat, or left if not. If two people mutually swipe right, the app allows them to begin a conversation. Amazing! You don't even need to leave your house to meet the love of your life.

For those of you have used the app, you most likely have had an encounter with someone who... lacks taste. Many people use the app as a means of finding easy hookups and are not shy about their mission. This kind of straightforwardness is usually unappealing to most Tinder users. However, other users are straightforward with their intent to marry you immediately. This out pour of affection is also pretty unsettling. But I got to thinking, what if God had a Tinder? What if that was his way of reaching people? He would probably be more like the latter of the two users. And how would we, unknowing of the fact that God was casually Tinder messaging us, react? Here's how I imagine what it would be like:

1. The Bio:

Jesus, 33

1 Prayer away Active always

Heaven >>>> Earth

Working as a carpenter for now, but hoping to get a job working for my Father soon. I love fishing, being alone in nature, and challenging my friends with riddles. I'm always on the move - don't like to have too much down time. I'd say three days is my max. Anyway, I'd love for you to get to know me! Swipe right:)

2. The Profile Picture:

3. The Too-Straightforward First Message:

God: I love you so much I sent my son to die for you

Me: *block*

4. The Pun Pick Up Line:


5. The unsubtle proposal:

God: If you believe in me, you can be my bride.

Me:

6. The weird request:


7. The guy that's too full of himself:

God: Did you know they wrote a book about me? It sold the most copies... ever.


8. The tough guy:

God: My book says in psalm 121 that I will keep you from all harm. I'm stronger than the enemy.


9. The musician:

God: And then I rolled the stone away and invented Rock 'n' Roll.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
