The Painted Veil...

do you think its possible that God uses things like movies that are not christian, to give a humbling message?
after watching this movie.. didn't like it at all at first.. its not the type of movie i would have liked in the past when i used spend a lot of time watching them.
but there is a message that was shown to me... something i was struggling with.. like the woman who got married to this Doctor, we sometimes as "believers" have affairs on Christ.. we forsake him... and we dont realize it.. but Christ died for us, when we were still sinners...
of course the video is not trying to send a christian message.. but something became quite visible to me.. love grows.. not just love for one another, but love for Christ. we know these things.. but i need reminders at just how much i neglect to respond to the love.... the love..... the love of Christ. after watching this movie i was compelled to spend time with God.. because i realized many times i put people before God. i get more excited to spend time with people than with my Creator.. weren't we created to have a relationship with our Creator?
... maybe instead of closing our minds to things that we tend to think, don't Glorify God, what would happen if in some cases we allowed God to show us how to see him in the details... i always miss the details...
Praise God for the moments of awareness he blesses us with...
