review

I saw "The Passion of the Rings Junior" last night. It was enjoyable. I liked the bloodless battle scenes, the focus was on the action and the characters instead of on gore. I never really got into the Narnia books growing up. For a few years I've been thinking about going back and reading them. I still don't have the motivation to read them. I'm sure I will someday though.

On a different note. Here's a Psalm that demonstrates God's forgiveness before "Christ's incarnation." God has always given grace and mercy, and desired faith and repentance.


Psalm 32 (New Living Translation)
A psalm of David.
1
Oh, what joy for those
whose rebellion is forgiven,
whose sin is put out of sight!

2
Yes, what joy for those
whose record the LORD has cleared of sin,
whose lives are lived in complete honesty!

3
When I refused to confess my sin,
I was weak and miserable,
and I groaned all day long.

4
Day and night your hand of discipline was heavy on me.
My strength evaporated like water in the summer heat.

Interlude
5
Finally, I confessed all my sins to you
and stopped trying to hide them.
I said to myself, "I will confess my rebellion to the LORD."
And you forgave me! All my guilt is gone.

Interlude
6
Therefore, let all the godly confess their rebellion to you while there is time,
that they may not drown in the floodwaters of judgment.

7
For you are my hiding place;
you protect me from trouble.
You surround me with songs of victory.

Interlude
8
The LORD says, "I will guide you along the best pathway for your life.
I will advise you and watch over you.

9
Do not be like a senseless horse or mule
that needs a bit and bridle to keep it under control."

10
Many sorrows come to the wicked,
but unfailing love surrounds those who trust the LORD.

11
So rejoice in the LORD and be glad, all you who obey him!
Shout for joy, all you whose hearts are pure!
