amazing grace
Thank you Scott for this gift.
My Sunday School class is watching the movie "Amazing Grace"...I've mentioned it on several occasions...watching it has put the song into a completely different perspective...we spent last week following our viewing discussing how the same feelings exist today...just thinking you are better than someone else is slavery. What makes one person better than another? Aren't we all the same in God's eyes?
Last week we also made notes during the movie to look up references.
The movie reminds so plainly that one person can make a difference. Even when you think you are accomplishing nothing...by your actions and the way you handle yourself you make a difference.
It also reminded us of how our country was built on this philosophy of all people are created equal...but even today that is not true with the immigrant population and the political unrest going on in that arena....wow times never change do they.
Be still and listen to the song again and think about the slave trader who wrote it and the change he brought about with the words of this song.
God's grace is an amazing thing.
Amen and amen!
