Mufasa's Ghost

This clip is the progression of scenes that lead up to Simba headed back to take his place... his rightful place amidst all things.....

Simba: {Disappointed sigh} That's not my father. That's just my reflection.

We are to be His reflection... we are His handiwork... birthed anew in His image.....

Rafiki: You see, he lives in you.

My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, 21 that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. 22 I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one— 23 I in them and you in me—so that they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me. John 17:20-23

That says it so plainly.... He lives on in us.... He resides within us .... To live a life through us.... Jesus is in us and The Father is in Jesus ... so that we can be one... so that we can be brought in to complete unity... SO THAT WE CAN KNOW AND THE WORLD CAN KNOW... WE MUST REMEMBER THESE TRUTHS... they are not some "happily ever after" made up fairy tale.... this is the real deal... This is the best story.... This is the most elaborate love affair of all time...

Making a people who were not a people into a people... in the Children of God...... Bearing His image... His likeness...Going forward in His power... and His love... so that the world will know the Father's love......

We must remember... we must head back to things once fully comprehended by those that believed.... We are His sons and His daughters...

One of my Favorite Narnian Quotes...

“One word, Ma’am,” he said, coming back from the fire; limping because of the pain. “One word. All you’ve been saying is quite right, I shouldn’t wonder. I’m a chap who always liked to know the worst and then put the best face I can on it. So I won’t deny any of what you said, even so. Suppose we have only dreamed, or made up, all those things – trees and grass and sun and moon and stars and Aslan himself. Suppose we have. Then all I can say is that, in that case, the made-up things seem a good deal more important than the real ones. Suppose this black pit of a kingdom of yours is the only world. Well, it strikes me as a pretty poor one. And that’s a funny thing, when you come to think of it. We’re just babies making up a game, if you’re right. But four babies playing a game can make a play-world that makes you real world hollow. That’s why I’m going to stand by the play-world. I’m on Aslan’s side even if there isn’t any Narnia. So, thanking you kindly for our supper, if these two gentlemen and the young lady are ready, we’re leaving your court at once and setting out in the dark to spend our lives looking for the Overland.

A Brilliant Quote from Marianne Williamson

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate,

but that we are powerful beyond measure.

It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.

We ask ourselves, "Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?"

Actually, who are you not to be?

You are a child of God.

Your playing small does not serve the world.

There is nothing enlightening about shrinking

so that others won't feel unsure around you.

We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.

It is not just in some of us; it is in every one.

As we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
