Here is the most amazing video - it is about 11 mins long - so worth watching...

I saw this in church on the day about 3 years ago when my daughter was suicidal. I sat up with her that whole night, whispering the words this man spoke of in her ear.

I'm so glad that I've found it so I may share it with her.

(I hope it works)

Danita,
Thanks for sharing that. I hope your daughter got through her suffering and is okay now. You're a special mom to be there for her. Depression is hard for the patient and the care giver.

I love Rob Bell. He's a wonderful speaker.

Laurel

Powerful stuff, Danita. I really needed to hear that. And I've been feeling the need for a new "mantra" these days, and found it: "I love you. We're gonna make it through. Dad knows the way Home."

I just watched the video; very intense. But I have to admit, the whole time I was thinking, why doesn't he take off his coat and wrap his son in it? Why did he wait till his son was screaming hysterically? I would have taken my son in my arms, as soon as the first raindrops fell.
Seemed somewhat contadictory to me.

Me, too, Hannelore. That baby would have been inside my coat (sweat, shirt, whatever), next to my body as soon a I saw a threat. Men may not think like women, tho. Not to mention it wouldn't have made as good a tape... backdrop for his analogy, and all - which was very good! Touching.

Danita, I totally get this. Often at prayer group we moms realte the love we have for our children to the love God has for us. Thanks for sharing this. I hope I have the guts to send this to someone who could really benefit from it right now. I'm not sure how it will be received, but I should leave that up to God.
