Better Than Fiction

Sandy and I had a great time at the movie last night with everybody. I know that the movie was really slow at some parts but I think that it made up for that with the ending. I loved what the author, Karen, said about why she chose to rewrite the ending of her book. She said, "A guy that knew he was going to die and yet, willingly went to face his death is the kinds guy you want to know more about."

Sound familiar?

Isaiah 53:7
  He was oppressed and afflicted,
yet he did not open his mouth;
he was led like a lamb to the slaughter,
and as a sheep before its shearers is silent,
so he did not open his mouth.

Philippians 2:8-11
  And being found in appearance as a human being,
he humbled himself
by becoming obedient to death—
even death on a cross!
  Therefore God exalted him to the highest place
and gave him the name that is above every name,
that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.
