It was a funny movie. I wanted to watch it long time ago and got the chance today. I dislike the guy, Bruce as he was such a moaning, grumpy person. He made a mess of everything and he believed only promotion in his job can bring him happiness. He was a stupid human. like me.
I believed the movie exaggerated some classic scenes of small people's life. I laughed, sighed and cried when I was watching.
Although it is only a man-made movie, I agree with the rules Bruce was told when he took the seat of Almighty One. 1. Do not hurt. 2. Mankind has free will.
I was always confused with the free will that God granted to us. He is a merciful Father and He allows free will which brought the world troubles. But, why, why our free will can not be well organised by God. Why He allows us to will according to our own hearts then shows us the CORRECTION he makes. It is just sooooo cruel. He knew I would not resist the temptation while He allows me to be in complicated situation. Then when I was hurt, He told me that I made mistakes. I did not understand the meaning of free will at all.
The movie gave a kind of illustration to this free will. Bruce, as a man, got power to do everything apart from changing man's free will. Yes, he nearly got what he wanted by all his miracle-making actions. However, he could not get ....something he really wanted in his heart, true love and feelings of achievement. He did not know what he really really wanted. We are silly kids and we don't know our hearts at all. When he found his gf was praying for him and prayed to let him go, I was crying with Bruce. It was soooooo manly. Bruce wanted to change her 'free will' but he actually wants her sincere 'free will'. At that moment, I a kind of understood the precious gift of 'free will'. It is precious when it is a good wish.
How long have I given up praying? How long have I been in muddle of thoughts about prayer and faith?
I think I will start small in my praying life. I pray for a peaceful neighbourhood.
