Quote of the Day: Firefly and Faith
My brain must work in strange ways because I was sitting in Sunday School today, the teacher asked something about what belonging to God means to us and my mind immediately went to this scene from "Firefly":
Wacky villagers have decided to burn River at the stake because they think she is a witch. (She isn't. She is just different and has abilities they don't understand.) Mal and Zoe have arrived to save her.
Villager says: "The girl is a witch."
Mal says: "Yeah, but she's our witch. So cut her the hell down!"
Love that.
Being God's means several things:
1) He will always protect us,
2) We owe Him our allegiance and obedience, and
3) He will always come to get us if someone tries to steal us away.
I just love the idea of God saying: "Let her go; she's one of mine."
