I was looking for something to watch this past Sunday evening and stumbled upon a channel that I don’t spend much time on – the Ion channel. They were showing a movie about the life of Noah. I thought – this is great, I just taught on this story last week and maybe I can get some new insight. Well – if you have not seen this movie don’t waste your time. The only reason that I would recommend watching this movie was to sit and try to pick out all the liberties that the writers took with scripture and all the things that they just plain had wrong.
As Irene and I flipped between the movie and other things Sunday evening it almost became funny all the things that they had wrong when you matched it up with scripture, but there is one part that really sticks out in my mind. There was a point that Noah and God were carrying on a conversation and God said that He had to go away for a while and think about something and that Noah would be on his own and that he would not be able to have access to God. I looked at Irene and told her that I was so glad that my God was not like the God in that movie.
My God does not leave me on my own, yet He does not force Himself on me. My God is always accessible, yet He longs for me to want to spend time with Him. Although I have not heard God’s audible voice (yet, but I am still waiting), I know that He is always listening – He is always there, he always has time, He is never to busy, and I know that He loves me a great deal. I am so glad that my God is not the God in that movie.
Until next time – Keep your eyes on Jesus and spend a little one on one time with God.
