Spiderman


So, I finally sat down and watched it last night (somehow managed to miss it in the theaters). I've watched enough movies to figure out that they pretty much all have a primary theme--even wacked-out movies like Dumb and Dumber (which is "stop being such an idiot"). Honestly, I was impressed by Spiderman 3, as it played itself out. The theme: bitterness will destroy you if you let it.
What truth! How many times have we let bitterness rage within, refusing to go to a person, in love, with an understanding and forgiving spirit? This NEVER ends up well, and only leads us farther from where God wants us to be. Even though it could turn us into an evil super-villain (which would be cool for an hour or so, maybe), as proven by this movie, I would never suggest it.
Forgive.
Ephesians 4:31-32
31"Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. 32Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you."
