I AM LEGEND

A great movie which really was about Will Smith (Robert …?). He was the main actor, the rest were merely side actors. He stole the whole show. Amazing acting. But what really struck me was that the show also showed how God has plans to end a catastrophe, no matter how hopeless the situation may be. Really, everything is in God’s hands and He works in ways unseen.

I recall in the movie how Will Smith’s daughter kept showing the butterfly sign to her father (W. Smith). Then later in the movie Anna came to his rescue (God send! He had no hope of survivign by himself at all!) when the nasty creatures were about to infect him and kill him. Though Robert had doubts about what Anna was telling him (that God sent her there, and TOLD her to rescue him, that there was a survivors’ colony somewhere), he saw the tattoo of a butterfly behind Anna’s neck. He was reminded of the moments when her daughter tried to show him the butterfly sign. So he decided to act. In the end, he sacrificed himself for the sake of the remaining surviving humans on earth (hence, he is legend)

Yes, God works in ways unseen. Bad things happen in this world (9/11). Instead of blaming God, let us take respite in the fact that He is interceding for us in the bad times. There were many accounts of how God moved throughout the people to bring many to safety. Bad things will continue to happen (the Bible says so), but in the end, Christ stands victorious.

Watch it!!!
