For Today's Becomers

Concerning receiving a profound, penetrating message through a movie, a contemporary said, “I know that things like that (or any message in life for that matter) are not valuable AS THEY ARE REMEMBERED, but are valuable as they become so much a part of us that THEY ARE FORGOTTEN. The message is trivialized by being remembered as something said or done in a movie, but something inside of us always wants so much to REMEMBER, REMEMBER, REMEMBER. And we never can quite hold on to it in that form. If we see it more, it diminishes; if we see it less, we forget. BUT, God is Faithful to let us BECOME... not simply remember.”
