The plot of this movie is a bit beyond my cognition, and I have no way to verify it. But watching this movie, what was deeply attracted by Maria was her gaze, her firm and clear gaze.
The film tells that the disciples of Jesus are following Jesus, but they have their own expectations. These expectations were not accidental in the background at the time, nor was it a whim. It can even be said that there is a certain great feeling mixed with it. Because these expectations of Jesus continued to grow and expand, the disciples selectively ignored the explicit hints of Jesus, were indifferent to Jesus' true feelings and needs, and fell into a kind of artificial revolutionary feelings.
In the film, Mary’s heart loves Jesus deeply. This kind of heartfelt love makes her eyes focus on the needs of Jesus. Her heart is based on the heart of Jesus, and she can feel the deep compassion. The real fear, the trust of that trust...
What do you expect from God? Start from your own needs? Is it starting from social morality? Starting from social issues? No matter what the expectations are, learn to put sovereignty in God, and believe in His love, His time, His preparations and arrangements. Put all expectations in the hands of God, otherwise we will take away the position of God's sovereignty in our hearts, and then our fall and disappointment are inevitable.
Only by focusing on God can we better understand His intentions for us, and understand more what we should do.
Choosing to give up everything to follow God is not easy at all, but it is worthwhile. Only by seeing Jesus' love can we have the courage to make this decision. Only the faith based in God can strengthen this choice.
What do our eyes see? It may be many social problems, it may be the helplessness of reality, it may be its own passion, or it may be a yearning for a better future. No matter what it is, these expectations cannot be imposed on God, turning God into a tool to realize our expectations. , This is too dangerous.
Open all the distracting thoughts in your heart and burn them in front of God, leaving only a pure heart, follow Him, follow Him, and follow Him.
