I am usually being discipled about being faithless, so i think a lot about Indiana Jones. You know - he was in some temple and he had to cross a big hole to find a special cup. He had heard there was a bridge but couldn't see it. Then, he threw sand over the hole and it landed on invisible stuff and you could see it was there... So of course I love the thread analogy! It has me participating in the journey, not just showing up at a certain point. Like, a constant choice to trust and keep going because I know who set me on my path. I hope that I can remember during my "cave" moments or "goblin" moments that I am following an invisible thread that will help others along the way and ultimately take me to Jesus!
Also, u really appreciate the history mingled in. I think it's really important to know what the gospels meant to those at the time - it gives more weight and also clarifies seemingly confusing scriptures.

I love the Indian Jones reference! The invisible thread concept is amazing because it requires so much faith. My prayer for you Sara is that you will become more faithful than you have ever been. That you will see everything being possible with God.
ReplyDeleteThanks Seth! I will be praying for this too! :-)
ReplyDeleteI love Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade! I've seen that movie a million times and remember another time you referred to that scene. Indie rocks! He's all out of shape and handling his business with the scriptures and running and shooting and saving his dad. It's a great story and totally doable for each of us in our lives.
ReplyDeleteGreat post, Booger.
