The Book of Eli

Jared and I watched The Book of Eli last night, and I was inspired by the movie. It was definitely one of the better movies we have seen in a long time.

What I took from the movie (without revealing too much, in case you are like us and don't watch movies until long after they are released) was how the main character (Denzel Washington) continued on in his journey of faith no matter how discouraging the circumstances around him were. He was determined to do what his God had told him to do. And in every single situation, his God delivered him though it seemed hopeless. This is the kind of faith I aspire to have. That no matter how bleak the present looks, I will be delivered and there are better days ahead.
