whats wrong with this?

kid asked Jesus... how much do u love me? .Jesus replied," I love you this much." and .he stretched his arms to the cross and died for us. .If you believe in God, you will send this to everyone on your list. .If you delete this, you will have a cold heart in 2009. .I treat you as a true friend. But if I don't get this back, .I get the hint. Send this to all people in your list within 30min .after u read this and something good will happen to you NOW. .This is not a fake...apparently...copy and paste this .to 15 people in the next 10mins and you WILL have the best day of your life .tomorrow

Got this chain message from a friend. Usually when i get this type of message i would just delete it. But something stuck to me. At first glance we may think, we have to send this message to all or at least 15 of my friends (in less than 30 mins) cause I believe in God and I love Jesus. Nothing wrong with sharing to your friends so that they could know the love of Jesus right?

I paused for awhile thinking about this message and I had this internal alarm going off. How can sending this message make something good happen to my life or have the best day of my life tomorrow? I started to think of Bible verses that can help support this statement, but can't think of any. Its even promoting a belief that sending chain messages would help make our lives better. The Bible didn't even promise that Christians will not suffer or have no troubles anymore.

I don't want to sound critical but my friend had the best intentions sending me this message. I hope this person was not hurt when I replied back
...if you want to follow Jesus. we have to obey him and that does not mean we will always have a good day but God will definitely lead us to his purpose...

yes i deleted it, but i don't have a cold heart :)
