Schindler List

Schindler List.. what a great show! Certainly in my all-time favourite top 5 movies so far.. The show is about the cruel killing of the 6 million Jews during the Holocust in World War II. The Nazis were merciless in killing the Jews. Liam Neeson, who belongs to the Nazi party, happened to be a rich German businessman who helped provide jobs for the homeless Jews. While The Nazis were torturing and killing the Jews, he helped to bring 1,100 Jews to his factory to work, and though he is losing $$ to support the running of the factory, he did it to save the lives of the Jews, else they will be sent back as slaves and tortured to death. The most touching part was when the war was over, the Jews were no longer fugitives.. yet Neeson cried and apologised to the Jews for not saving more Jews, because he did not have enough $$ to bring them over.

It touched my heart and God spoke to me about our roles in winning the lost to Christ. The devil has been taking away lost souls to hell everyday like the Nazis in the show and yet, we could do nothing to stop the devil. It dawned upon me that we Christians need to be influential and very rich, like the rich German businessman, (not for our own, but for God glory) in order to win lost souls for Christ! Dear God, please help me to prosper so that I can do more for the extension of your kingdom. Amen.
