Guest guest Posted July 19, 2001 Report Share Posted July 19, 2001 Dear Friends, In a scene in the movie "Out of Africa," a lion attacks an ox in their camp when they are traveling with supplies. Baroness Karon Blixen (Isak Dinesan) fights the lion off with a whip, and in the process gets torn by some large thorns from a bush. The lion departs, leaving the ox dying. After it is all over, when her foreman and friend, Farrah, is pulling thorns from her back, he says: Sabu is bleeding, she does not have this ox. The lion is hungry, he does not have this ox. This wagon is heavy, it does not have this ox. God is happy. He is playing with us, Sabu. In the adventures and circumstances of each of our lives, God is playing with us. Bleeding, hungry, heavy, dying; Sabu, lion, wagon, and ox, no one has the ox, and still God is happy. He is all these things and He is none of these things. God is happy, Sabu. Love, Always Love Mazie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
