Once again, it's Oscar night. When movie making and storytelling are celebrated, when dreams come true.
Contrary to the boundaries and limitations we encounter in life; art and storytelling know no boundaries. Hence the irony that art celebrates life.
Reality is harsh and marriages don't always last. While every baby is created to be unique, they are quickly raised to conform to society and submit to bureaucracy.
Colours may separate, power may corrupt, and wealth may divide; but LOVE rises above ALL and paves the way for unity in the midst of diversity.
Technology may offer humanity connectivity but it will take more than technology and connectivity to draw the heart and mind of one person closer to another.
At 35, I feel closer to 70 in terms of dreams, hopes and direction in life. I wake up everyday praying for change, for God to show up.
May He hear my prayer, give us strength to love, renew our hopes and heal our land. "The challenges in life are part of life. It's how we learn."
I lift up my eyes to the hills - where does my help come from? My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.
He will not let your foot slip - he who watches over you will not slumber nor sleep.
The LORD watches over you - the LORD is your shade at your right hand; the sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night.
The LORD will keep you from all harm - he will watch over your life; the LORD will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore. Psalms 121 NIV.
Amen.
Sv+
