'Narnia' is Awesome!

C.S. Lewis knew how to write a good story! Disney knows how to make movies and brought the story to life- from the cold-as-ice White Witch to the majestic roar of Aslan. I feel they did a good job of portraying the dramatic, action-packed moments without being too scary for young viewers. Sin and hatred are ugly and are represented by grotesque creatures in the film. When the little girl, Lucy asks "Is Aslan safe?" she receives the answer "No He is not safe, but He is good." So true of God. He could eliminate us with a single word, yet because of His goodness He sustains & blesses us. Without giving too much away, there are two scenes that brought my husband and I to tears. One is the coronation ceremony- not of Aslan, but of the children--- those the mighty Lion died to save. He crowns them and gives them each a new name. Like Aslan, Jesus died a death He didn't deserve, paid a debt He did not owe so we could be crowned someday. The Bible says that we will have thrones and reign with Him for eternity. Call this pure fantasy if you wish, but my life is better for believing it...
