"Seek ye the LORD while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near: [7] Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and He will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon." - Isaiah 55:6-7
"[1] Have mercy upon me, O God, according to Thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of Thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions.
[2] Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
[3] For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me.
[4] Against Thee, Thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in Thy sight: that Thou mightest be justified when Thou speakest, and be clear when Thou judgest.
[5] Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.
[6] Behold, Thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part Thou shalt make me to know wisdom.
[7] Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
[8] Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which Thou hast broken may rejoice.
[9] Hide Thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.
[10] Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
[11] Cast me not away from Thy presence; and take not Thy Holy Spirit from me.
[12] Restore unto me the joy of Thy salvation; and uphold me with Thy free Spirit.
[13] Then will I teach transgressors Thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto Thee.
[14] Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, Thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall sing aloud of Thy righteousness.
[15] O Lord, open Thou my lips; and my mouth shall shew forth Thy praise.
[16] For Thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it: Thou delightest not in burnt offering.
[17] The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, Thou wilt not despise.
[18] Do good in Thy good pleasure unto Zion: build Thou the walls of Jerusalem.
[19] Then shalt Thou be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt offering and whole burnt offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon Thine altar." - Psalm 51:1-19
"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." - John 3:16
I am a Christian, and I believe in the Lord Jesus Christ as my Savior from my sins! Praise the LORD for saving such a sinful wretch like me!! Courage, Christian soldiers serving under King Jesus' banner! "What shall we then say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?" (Romans 8:31) "Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ." (2 Timothy 2:3)
Favorite book: The Holy Bible, which is the Word of God. “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.” (2 Timothy 3:16)
Other favorite books: The Bell Mountain Series by Lee Duigon; The Remnant Trilogy by Tim Chaffey and K. Marie Adams; The Crown & Covenant Trilogy and Hostage Lands by Douglas Bond; The Ultimate Proof of Creation by Jason Lisle; Morning and Evening by Charles Spurgeon; etc. I highly recommend these books! 📖😃

San-kyu is thank you? Then I have learned a new word.:)
LikeLiked by 2 people
🙂 “San” is 3 and “Kyu” is 9 in Japanese, so when put together it sounds like “san-kyu” (Thank you!) Since it’s the 39th week of my blog, I decided to do it! “Arigato” (pronounced “Areegatoh”) is the real Japanese word for “Thank you.”

That’s great! I have actually never watched any of them. But, do you know Angus for #3?
Did the actor do a good job as her, in your opinion?
LikeLiked by 1 person
Because, I know this might sound a little crazy… but, the actress who did the voice for Angus just auditioned for a part in our film!
I know, it’s crazy, right?
Anyway, we are all really excited about this! I mean… I never even dreamed that we would get a famous Hollywood actor to be in our film! Not like I’d want any old actor from Hollywood in our film, because most actors would go directly against the messages that we are trying to comunicate with our films. But, you know, it’s just a ten-year-old girl that acted in a (what I understand as a pretty much) innocent movie.
Can you please be praying for me spicificly, as I personally do not think that I have enough experience to direct this film. But, since the Lord is opening up a lot of doors for us to make this, we are moving forward in faith. And, to tell you the truth, it is kind of a scary experience for me.

WOW, ELIJAH!! That’s totally awesome!! I have just prayed for you, Brother, and my prayers for you will continue everyday. I think God has a certain reason why the voice actress for Agnes came to your audition!! That news really wowed me and Jay! Keep up the good work for Christ by faith, Brother, may God be with you in your endeavors, for He surely will.
Here’s a movie clip starring Agnes that I found on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KTxPOUIC758

I’ve prayed that God will give you wisdom in your directing the movies. God will give you strength, the Bible guarantees you that!! 🙂

Oh, and thanks for this video as well! At this point we have already gotten 3 or 4 people wanting to play the part that Nev auditioned for, and so far she is the best! I’m really excited about this!
This will also probably enable us to reach more people with the message of the film, because people will be interested to see the new movie that Nev Scharrel is in! 🙂
Well, we haven’t actually booked her in for the part yet, but it’s just a matter of working out all the details. 😉
