#3cccJournal2TwittBook Maybe the reason we saw deeper meanings in the Star Wars movie, meanings that can be applied to our walk with 2599

#3cccJournal2TwittBook ..Christ, is due in part to the hour we had to wait at the Bell Island Ferry. But on second thought, I’m sure we 2600

#3cccJournal2TwittBook ..would have seen most of what we saw regardless, just because we tend to look for connections between everyday 2601

#3cccJournal2TwittBook ..life and the spirit world. Cindy and I often share our daily reflections in the bedroom. I don’t know if other 2602

#3cccJournal2TwittBook ..couples do that or not. Then there is the fact that in everything we’ve done as Christians, Cindy and I have 2603

#3cccJournal2TwittBook ..been at odds with the “normal” way Christians do things. We seek to know God’s will, we expect to hear God’s 2604

#3cccJournal2TwittBook ..will, and when we do, we act by doing God’s will, regardless of the consequences, regardless of how many times 2605

#3cccJournal2TwittBook ..we get it wrong and fail. After all, learning is a process of failing to success and I believe that is part of 2606

#3cccJournal2TwittBook ..what is implied in the scripture that tells us to be “fools for Christ”. After talking about Star Wars we saw 2607

#3cccJournal2TwittBook ..the following. The “Force” is like God, good in it’s essence but like anything else in life, it’s what you do 2608

#3cccJournal2TwittBook ..with it that counts. In a rebellious or covetous heart it can be used for evil purposes. The sacrifice which 2609

#3cccJournal2TwittBook ..Ben Canobi made for the greater good is similar to Christ’s sacrifice and we can see that in his parting words 2610

#3cccJournal2TwittBook ..“By killing me you will only multiply my efforts”. When they were entering a strange town they had the wisdom 2611

#3cccJournal2TwittBook ..to understand they had nothing to fear from those who did not understand the power of the “force” within, 2612

#3cccJournal2TwittBook ..whose minds would be weak by comparison. When Luke Skywalker pushed aside the computer lens we saw the epic 2613

#3cccJournal2TwittBook ..battle between logical reasoning, as important as that is, and our choice as followers of Christ to be led by 2614

#3cccJournal2TwittBook ..God’s spirit within. And finally, we saw in the rejection of Ben and his knights 2615

#3cccJournal2TwittBook ..(the “crazy man” they called him) the same rejection that today’s worldly Christians 2616

#3cccJournal2TwittBook ..heap on those who refuse to follow their particular “form of godliness”. 2617
