Movement

It's been years since I've seen a movie that moved me to tears. Well actually thats a lie. Two years ago I watched "The three people you meet when you go to heaven", and actually had a half hour hard sobbing fit when he met his father before going to heaven.

Before that however, I can't remember a movie that moved me, except Braveheart when I was in the 8th grade. Yea I cried. Hard.

Until tonight, when my room mates finally urged me to watch "The Green Mile". They have been telling me for years to watch it and I never did. Then tonight I couldn't sleep and I decided to. Man what a moving story. In the end when John Koffee was describing what Tom Hanks should do when he faces judgement before God, about killing one of God's miracles - he says, "Every day the pain and anger in this world is like shards of glass in my brain. Tell God, you did John a favor."

I started to think about what it was like to be Jesus here on earth, or even Jesus now. Feeling and seeing the depravity each moment, and having a grace beyond our means to keep calling us back.

Think about it.
