It Hurts. It Burns.

Persevering for your special instructions is excruciating Lord. It hurts. It burns. It's longer than I signed up for. I don't know how much longer I can persevere for this. Many in my situation would have quit one way or another already. This uniquely tailored perseverance trial is grueling, agonizing for my soul at times. Lord, I hope it comes to an end soon. I don't know if what's in me can continue any longer for this. I need your fuel.

Mel Gibson, your movie is a Godsend

Hacksaw Ridge

So moving. My eyes dampened with water emerging from the ocean springs of the heart on several occasions. My soul gave slow-motion awe-filled applause multiple times for the courage of the hero. Profound admiration for his Hulk-like muscles of integrity to his convictions that held strong to his unshakable convictions. Convictions that refused to bow down to agonizing external pressures constantly lacerating at him on all sides to compromise. Refusing no matter what. Such a person is extremely rare in the West. Extremely.

Mel Gibson, thank you so much for this movie.
