heart knowledge

I watched the movie "Elektra" late last Friday night. Oh how I love movies where women kick some serious butt. Here's a quote that struck me:
"Some lessons can't be taught, Elektra. They must be lived to be understood."
It's not enough to know something in your head. Knowledge has to consummate with your heart in order for you to birth transformation.

that's an amazing thought... I don't think I grasped the deepness of Electra the first time I saw it... Jennifer Garner is one of my favorite actresses though... I'll have to watch it again now. :)

PS... Freakier and freakier... I click on your link to Naked Pastor blog... and I had seen that blog before... so I looked at his links and he's linked to an author who used to go to the small church in Chicago my husband was a pastor at!! We just narrowed the six degrees of separation down to FOUR! CRAZY!!
