I’m one of those people who tries to find a message in just about everything. It can make watching even ridiculous television worth it. However, this time, it was a good episode and it holds promise.
Manifest is about a plane and its passengers that did not crash but mysteriously disappeared for 5.5 years. However, the passengers and crew do not understand what everyone else is talking about because they think they have only been gone a few hours
I was watching this new series when key words jumped out at me. Two sisters-in-law were talking when one told the other that whatever friction there was between them was in the past because “the universe gave them a Do-Over.”
This reminded me of a sermon I heard. The preacher said, “God is the God of second chances, third chances, etc” In other words, God is the God of DO-OVERs. He provides opportunities for us to FIX WHAT WE HAVE BROKEN and when we can’t we should TURN IT OVER TO HIM.
However, I do believe we should try WITH THE HELP OF GOD to fix any hurts. We should put ourselves out there because this is how we humble ourselves and this is HOW WE GROW.
The bottom line is that when God gives us a DO-OVER, we shouldn’t just Do Over, we should DO BETTER because this is how WE BECOME BETTER.
In the Spirit of Truth,
