Today I saw
It is a powerful story: “Set against the backdrop of 19th-century France, Les Misérables tells an enthralling story of broken dreams and unrequited love, passion, sacrifice, and redemption—a timeless testament to the survival of the human spirit. This epic and uplifting story has become one of the most celebrated musicals in theatrical history.”
The description above, taken from the website, describes how packed the story is. But there are a few things I hold close to my heart tonight:
To love another person is to see the face of God. I believe we are called to love others with a sacrificial love, as opposed to a self-serving love. I think we all have the opportunity to experience and see the face of God in a tiny way on this side of heaven in loving others.
I am grateful for a community of faith that deeply believes in loving one another. I hope that you have experienced the sacred space of seeing God’s face.
And, of course, there is so much more in this story about war, dying, grief, and grace. I will never grow weary of this powerful story! ❤️ trish
