Faith is a very personal thing, I mean the relationship between man himself and God, and no one else can replace it. The countless sharing and intercession of the truth by others are not as good as the small steps you have taken personally towards God. Because God loves everyone just as much, He respects your personality exactly as much.
The shy, sensitive, timid David in the film is my favorite character. He is small, he is a backup in the team, a transfer student, a newcomer, and a father in a wheelchair at home, etc., all of which set him as the most humble and tiniest in the film. When David first discussed joining the football team with his father, there was a look of longing and sadness in his eyes. Why was he so sad? Because he is afraid, is he really not a good kicker or is he afraid that he is not tall and strong enough?
When he played with the team for the first time, he was thankful that he was not called into the game because he was afraid that the team would be embarrassed to lose the ball because of him.
When he and Dad were repainting the walls, he washed his hands first, and sat in a wheelchair. Dad found a small place missing but insisted on getting up from the wheelchair. It seemed like a small reminder from God to David. .
When he played in the team's last title-winning game, the last free kick required him to play farther than his limit before he could go to the championship with the team. But he is always insecure, what is he afraid of? In fact, at this time, he was not unconfident, but had little faith in God. He believed so much in his own limits that he forgot about God's infinity. But when he decided to give the result to God for the last fight, the wind also changed. As a result, of course he did.
You may say I say this because I believe in God, so everything seems so real, so touching, God is so amazing, if you believed it you would think so, but you don't know whether to believe it or not, because you don't know God does not exist. However, this does not affect God's invitation to you: as long as you seek, I will guide; if you knock, the door will be opened to you.
You don't want to open the door, what are you afraid of?
PS: Thank the Lord for letting me see this movie in the days of the wilderness.
