One Night With the King :)

Okay, I just wrote a whole long post, but this didn't have anything to do with it, so I made a new one. :)

So, today I was watching One Night With the King... and if you haven't seen it, its AMAZING!... but anyways, there were two amazing quotes that I thought I'd share with y'all. I've seen the movie like a million times, but these two quotes really struck me today.

"Instead of asking questions of our trials, are our trials not meant to ask questions of ourselves?"

"When David was fighting Goliath, he won the battle not because he fought well, but because he believed well."

The first one brings up such a good point about questioning God's plan. I think during hard times, we tend to ask God "Why?" instead of "What are you trying to teach me through this situation?". It is my prayer that when the Lord tries me, I will try to learn from the situation instead of asking "Why?" over and over again. The second quote also struck me. I had never really thought about it before. I don't know if I just wasn't paying attention during that part in the movie or what, but this time I was just like "Wow." Its all about belief and faith. In the song 'Come ye, Sinners', there is a line that says "True belief and true repentance; Every grace that brings you nigh". Its so simple. Belief draws you the the Lord. If we have faith as small as a mustard seed, we can move mountains. My prayer for all of us is to be faithful to the Lord and believe in him. So, haha that kinda did have to do with the other post, but whatever :) Y'all should totally go watch that movie!!
