A River Runs Through it

The movie A River Runs Through It came out in 1992.  It was a favorite of my friend Dan Horn [Lions Den Man]

The movie is about a preacher [Tom Skerritt], his wife and two sons.  One son is perfect, the other just seems to find all kinds of trouble.  At the end of the movie, the preacher gives a sermon about trying to help those whom we love.  Here is part of what he says...

 "Each one of us here today will, at one time in our lives... look upon a loved one who is in need and ask the same question. "We are willing to help, Lord... but what, if anything, is needed?" It is true we can seldom help those closest to us. Either we don't know what part of ourselves to give... or more often than not, the part we have to give... is not wanted. And so it is those we live with and should know who elude us... but we can still love them. We can love completely... without complete understanding." 

It's a beautiful day in God's world be sure to see the good.
