I found hope in my life

Rating: Null/10 (28 November 2008)

While I watched "Signs," the suffering of Episcopalian Father Graham Hess (Mel Gibson) reminded me of Ecclesiastes 8:14. The righteous man got what the wicked deserved. That's why Father Hess couldn't comprehend what went on under the sun (Ecclesiastes 8:17). And he lost his faith when he faced the death of his wife and was attacked by aliens. When he said, "I am not going to spend a second saying prayers," I thought about what faith was. And I asked myself, "What if God doesn't exist?" Despite all my efforts to search for the answer, I know that I can't find the meaning of life (8:17). But I was so glad that Father Hess regained his faith back in the Infinite at the end of the movie. Why was I so glad? I think it is because "anyone who is among the living has hope" (9:4). I found hope in Hess's life. And I found hope in my life.
