So I was watching the movie Evan Almighty and it had the coolest scene in it ever. in this scene, God(played by Morgan Freeman) talks to Evan's wife while she is in a resturaunt. At this time, she is sort of thinking that her husband is crazy for saying that God wanted him to build this ark. And this is Morgan Freemans speech about the story of Noah and the ark that I loved so much... "I love that story. The one with the Ark. A lot of people missed the point of that story. They think its about God's wrath and anger. They love it when God gets angry. I think its a love story. About believing in each other. You know the animals showed up in pairs. They stood by each other. Side by side. Just like Noah and his family. Everybody entered the ark side by side. Let me ask you something. If someone prays for patience, do you think God gives them patience? Or does he give them the opportunity to be patient? If they pray for courage, does God give them courage, or the opportunity to be couragious? If someone prays for their family to be closer do you think God zaps them with warm, fuzzy feelings or does he give them opportunities to love each other?" I love this speech because it is how I feel God is. he doesn't just zap whatever you pray for in your face. but gives you the opportunity to work it into your life. because God is not a genie. he is your loving creator. another part of this movie that I loved is the anogram for ark. how do we change the world? with an ARK.
