A short satire on the concept of beauty, possibly exposing the realities we live in.
Connecting over a film is more about listening and sharing. The questions below only serve as a springboard. Pick your favorites and see what stories you discover along the way.
– What do you think of the story?
– What one word comes to mind when you think of this film?
– What do you think she is really longing for? Is it anything that can ever be reached?
– What/who pressures you to change who you are? Why?
– Are there things that have given you freedom from life’s expectations?
– May I share with you what has given me freedom from life’s expectations?
Once you get passed the strangeness of this film, and process your emotions of uncomfortableness, you may begin to connect with the “robot” and her striving to meet an ever-increasing standard by which you are measured.
In our spiritual life as well, we intuitively know that we’re not perfect and could never meet a standard of perfection.
God knows this too. God is perfect in every way. The Bible calls this Holiness. And His standard or requirement for us is also perfection. It is our imperfections that separate us from God.
That’s why Jesus came to earth. God rescues us from this hopeless situation by providing a solution for our selfish, self-centered imperfections. Jesus takes our place and pays for our imperfections. This is the only solution for God to be perfectly holy, perfectly just, and perfectly loving toward us.
Jesus made the way for you to be at peace with God. He offers you a personal relationship with Him.
To have this personal relationship, we must acknowledge that we are imperfect and that our imperfection separates us from God, who is perfect. There is nothing we can do on our own to reach God. Only God’s son Jesus is able to bridge that gap for us through His death and resurrection.
God is waiting for you to respond to His initiatives toward you.
Would you like to begin that kind of friendship with God and find what you’re searching for most?
If yes, great. Prayer, just talking to God, is an easy way to express that desire. If not, what’s keeping you from that?
