But Even If...

Faith Without GuaranteesLife Lessons Learned We all like a good guarantee. Whether it’s a warranty on a product, a 30-day money-back return policy, or a weather app that assures no rain on our picnic day, guarantees offer comfort. They’re the insurance of life. But when it comes to our walk with God, Scripture offers something far more meaningful than comfort—it offers commitment. Daniel 1…

I Will…

A Psalm of David. 1 I will sing of steadfast love and justice;     to you, O LORD, I will make music. 2 I will ponder the way that is blameless.     Oh when will you come to me? I will walk with integrity of heart     within my house; 3 I will not set before my eyes     anything that is worthless. I hate the work of those who fall away;     it shall not cling to me. 4 A perverse heart shall be…

Father of the Scribe

Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be established. – Proverbs 15:3 I write not that it should be praised Nor do I speak to be heard of myself Truly that youth has long past me But for the sanity of my thoughts And the promise of God to restore them For I as a man am as all men Hungry, thirsty, ravenous in desire Needing, wanting, torn by self will Critical, cynical,…

Dedication to God and the Spiritual Journey

For Christians, dedication to God is the starting point for the spiritual life and the advance to Christian maturity. Dedication is a synonym for commitment, devotion, loyalty, and positive volition. According to Charles Ryrie, “There is perhaps no more important matter in relation to the spiritual life than dedication.”[1] In another place he states, “Dedication concerns the subjection of my…

Factually, I understand the process of boiling leaf litter that I have collected from my backyard is logical, I don't want to introduce anything potentially harmful into my isopod enclosure

on the other hand

boiling pot of leaves is REALLY giving kid-making-leaf-brew-like-a-makebelieve-witch vibes

Acts 14:21-22 — Today's Verse for Monday, October 30, 2023

[kacievvbbbb]

I think a major point that the live action completely misses and honestly a lot of people haven’t brought up. Is that in the original Nani WANTS Lilo around. Yes because Liko needs her and no one else understands Lilo like she does. But also because Nani needs Lilo just as much as Lilo needs her. Lilo was just as much all Nani had left same as Lilo. And to just not acknowledge that. To pretend like Nani stayed with Liko just out of some grander sense of responsibility and it’s “what she’s supposed to do” is to throw away their sisterhood.

The whole live action is Lilo talking about how smart and kind and amazing Nani is and how she has all these dreams and how she was really good at all these things until Lilo. Not once does it seem like Nani is even interested in Lilo or her hobbies outside of her responsibly to look after her as her older sister. She doesn’t care that Lilo’s been kicked out of hula class even tho Lilo in the OG loves hula, she immediately wants to take stitch back to the pound and then goes on a whole tirade about how you can’t let Lilo “trick” you into doing all these things, she doesn’t care when Lilo tries to show her the Elvis CD trick, She not there surfing with Lilo cause it’s an enjoyable pastime and something she loves and wants to share with her sister she’s there because it’s her new job.

Through out the movie Nani is part of the people that make Lilo feel ostracized which is completely antithetical to the original movie where Nani is fighting so hard to make the world a place Lilo feels accepted in.

So no the movie didn’t need to be a one to one remake of the original but it shouldn’t be a completely different movie either because then what’s the fucking point!!!

In this version I’m not even convinced that Nani actually LIKES Lilo.

And honestly the film doesn’t try and convince you that she should. Lilo is indistinguishable from any other movie child that is either a bundle of destructive chaos or just a mini adult both played for jokes.

Covenant Prayer

Hear my prayer, God of my Fathers. Give ear to me this time that I may praise You. For if pride be my god, and selfishness my comforter If arrogance be my delusion, and knowledge my weapon If fear be my chosen master, and resentment my judgment If darkness be my intent, and wrath my justice If destruction be my will, and harm my desire If self righteousness be my law, and death my companion Then…
