I have to say that i cried. And related it to my life. I read the bible afterwards to deepen my understanding. Heres what i learnt.
- God can make your life hard. But its a trial to strengthen your faith. You will doubt. He lets you go through hardships. But in the end, you will have a lot more.
- Psalms 77 in the Old Testament, Jesus fulfills accurately, if you associate this with the scene of Jesus walking in the sea and the whole story makes sense.
- Keep your eyes in me - focus on Jesus. If your eyes is not focused or you avoided him. You start to be weaken. This is shown when Simon/peter starts to drown.
- God isn’t bad. He lets you be hungry but he will feed you. Know that a period of hardship is necessary.
- The connection with Old Testament and New Testament shows how big and grand is our God with not just one but a lot more references in the whole bible.
I would recommend anyone to watch the series the chosen. Its free and does open your minds. Combine it with bible to deepen and learn God words. Don’t forget to prioritize the bible over the series and don’t associate the Jesus (actor) with the Jesus in the bible. But use the series as a additional resource to make understanding easier.
Thank you for reading. May Jesus Christ bless you. Amen
