Today, Me, Cody, Jenn & Tabi went to see The Passion of the Christ. Oh my gosh I have so much to say about this movie, so here goes.

While I was watchin the movie I had soooo many different emotions. I was angry with Peter for denying Jesus, Judas for betraying him, and with the guards for beating him. I was upset about the people spitting on him, I wanted to stand up n just yell! I couldn't understand why no one would stand with him. Me n Tabi were sobbing loudly thru almost the whole movie. But, I really lost it when I watched the part where Jesus fell because he was weak and the cross was heavy, and Mary was watchin and she had a flashback of Jesus falling when he was a child. She rushed to him and said: "I'm here Jesus." And even after all the stuff he had suffered, the whipping, beating, and pressure, he calmy said "Behold mother, I do this to make all things new." As he was being whipped, and beaten with the ball lookin thing with spikes on it I just closed my eyes, because I was already crying so bad that I couldn't take it anymore, I thought I was gonna have to walk out of the movie right there, it just made me wonder how people could be so cruel to someone, constantly, like that. I want to live everyday feeling partly like I do now, wanting to be a better person. I've realized that the message he wants us to know is that it isn't about hate and violence, it's about loving people no matter what they do to you, "Love your enemies." As he says while he's on the cross "Forgive them Lord, for they know not what they do." He wants us to see others as he sees them, I mean, it's natural to see someone and be aggravated by them. I always knew that he died on the cross to forgive sins but once I actually thought about it, I really didn't have any idea at all about how much he suffered for our lives. When I walked out of the theatre I felt really weired, and when I was walking to the car, I thought about it, and i've been thinking about it all evening -on the verge of crying- about the path I should be following. Jesus is still there waiting for you, being patient. Faith is something that either you have, or you don't. For those of you who have it, Praise him and our Heavenly Father. I suggest everyone see this movie. It could open peoples hearts and minds who don't believe, and bring in faith to many people in this world.

Well that's enough typing guys. I'll update ya on other stuff later. XOXO.

everything you said about that movie was exactly what i felt. i was sobbing throughout most of the movie but when Mary had that flashback of Jesus as a child, it tore me up. I just thought you would like to know..
