During Sunday cell group, we watch the movie "Evan Almighty". This is the fourth time for me to see this movie, everytime got me into some reflections and emotions.
In the movie, God ask Evan to built an ark in prepare for the flood coming up on Sept 22. Despite having to give up some of his dream job, Evan built an ark on time: Sept 22 midday. But on September 22, it comes with clear skies, and Evan loads the hundreds of animals onto the newly finished ark in front of live news crews and nearby citizens. Minutes pass with clear skies, so spectators start jeering at him. Dark clouds appear and rain starts pouring down. Evan tells everyone to board the ark but no one listens. The rain suddenly stops and everyone starts laughing at Evan. Even Joan, Evan's wife, tells Evan to leave the ark, but Evan refused.
The flood finally did come when the dam then breaks and the crowd witnesses the flood of water approaching. Panic overtakes everyone and they board the ark. The ark sails down the streets of Washington D.C. from the flooded water of the burst lake until it eventually lands touching the front of the Capitol. At the end, God reappears to Evan, telling him that the way to change the world is by doing one Act of Random Kindness ("ARK") at a time
Sometimes, I really don't know why God is asking me to do this and that, like Evan doesn't know about the reason for the ark. I just know that there is a day like Sept 22, that something will happen.
But when is the time for this day to come...?
TOUGH WAIT...!
