It's so refreshing, don't you think? We, my family at least, can totally relate to it on so many levels. It's so full of hope! My husband watches it when he needs motivation in his coaching. Although he teaches/ coaches in a public school and can't share the bible, and certain religious examples, he does take a lot away from that movie and "tweak" it into something he CAN use sharing the same message, and getting the same point across. (Isn't that sad, though... unable to bring up even God's name in a school setting. At least up here in the Northeast, many schools have even given up the pledge because of the refrence...I have so many friends that are afraid to talk about religion, etc, outside of church, afraid of offending someone!! Not me though...you don't want to hear it, then walk away!! What a world we live in!!)MrsCoachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18235764226620788111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617895.post-67301300787580805322009-02-26T13:03:00.000-05:002009-02-26T13:03:00.000-05:00Great post!

We also watched Flywheel. What stuck out to me was he could not defend himself for his past mistakes...he made them right like Zacchias but that didn't earse them...God defended him when the time came. All three movies are a good reminder to hunger and thirst!Daniellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16204690380220310333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617895.post-5128411106886113542009-02-26T08:27:00.000-05:002009-02-26T08:27:00.000-05:00"When we truly seek Him, it doesn't mean everythin..."When we truly seek Him, it doesn't mean everything will go great or easy - but it does mean that we can be in the center of His will for us which is the best place to be."<BR/><BR/>Yes! We are living this right now and it is the truth. I can honestly say that despite the stressful circumstances, it is such a blessing to just rest in Him.
