Does anyone realise Harry's sacrifice & resurrection is connected or even inspired to the much greater battle & suffering that Jesus faced? The Christian influences are so prevalent in this. In a movie & a fictional story, it's so easy to see the good side & the bad side. Voldemort's league of people who aren't truly evil but rather weak or misguided & those who are brave enough to fight for justice & what is right, those who sacrifice their own lives. Who will you be a warrior for in the real world, the world where temptation isn't as easy to recognise as a torturous whisper in your head? Will you betray Christ when something tempts you or you're scared of something lesser than him?
The question I'm trying to ask in a not-so-articulate way is that if the world was a movie, if our lives where put on the big screen, which character would you be? Someone inspiring, someone who grows & is always true to the right side, no matter what one could lose? Someone who, despite everything they lack, gives it their best shot? Someone who realises their gifts & talents that were only given to them for a purpose & uses it according to that purpose? Or someone like Draco Malfoy who is, pulled to one side so easily, someone who falls as soon as there is a chance of failure or loss, a lesser character? It's so easy to know which side you would join when you watch the movie & gush over your lost childhood but in this really confusing reality, it's so hard to be honourable & a true servant of the real Lord. Everyday there is temptation to put anything above God and everyday, so many of us give in to it.

As a warrior, do you even know who or what you are fighting for? Do you even know if you're fighting?

I really pray that each of us will see the battle that is going on each and every day. I pray that we'll heal each other's wounds and not be shaken, that we'll be courageous and always fight for God. Even if we're not Christian, we will see the real war that is going on and be the character that is seen as righteous. I pray that we'll never lose passion or faith & just know that God is with us, that we will live always being reminded of the sacrifice that actually happened & never lose hope in it.
