So many years ago, I struggled with watching and reading sexual content. Wattpad is full of lustful stories, and it’s hard not to notice if you’re battling those urges. I used to fall for it, too, until around age 13, when God opened my eyes. After falling into watching a sexual scene, I knew I was going to go back and do it again later. I would stop for some time but would just go back to doing it.
          	
          	But this time, I heard a whisper, "You are hurting me," and it broke my heart.
          	
          	"You are breaking my heart."
          	
          	The voice was heartbroken. I could hear the agony in every syllable. I could hear the pain in His voice. I knew who was speaking. I was nearly saved, having received Jesus not too long ago. He was whispering, telling me He was hurting.
          	
          	It was as if I could hear His crushed heart. Knowing I was hurting Him made me realize how much He loves us and feels everything we do, good or bad.
          	
          	He was always there with me. Right by my side, seeing me self-destruct. Since then, something has changed me. I couldn't watch or read anything that hurt Him anymore. I didn't know what it was until I matured. It was love.
          	
          	Because you can't love someone and be okay with hurting them at the same time. You can't smile at what breaks this heart. Let God show you His heart. Ask Him to open your eyes and break down those walls. To see through His eyes. To hear what’s breaking Him now.
          	
          	I thank God that day He gave me a glimpse of His heart, and that was enough to change my whole life. From that day onward, I made a commitment to try never to break His heart like that again, even when it's hard and tempting. He helped me every step of the way ♥️

          Review:
          This movie has iconic pieces of music, won an Oscar, and has some amazing quotes I still think about.
          
          It was very interesting and different to watch an older film. It kept me engaged, and I enjoyed seeing both men's perspectives. This is an older movie, but I liked that about it; the filmmaking of that time was really nice. I appreciated following both characters and seeing how different their perspectives were and how they eventually crossed paths.
          
          Recommend: If you want to watch an older film, it's fun and realistic. This movie isn't cheesy and was inspiring to watch. It left me wanting to live a life of conviction from God and see how that can impact others.

          Movie I watched recently: Surprised by Oxofrd ✨️
          
          Synopsis: Emotionally guarded Caro Drake arrives in Oxford with the singular goal of attaining her PhD. However, through a turbulent friendship with a charming young man, Caro begins to open herself up to mystery, vulnerability, and love.
          
          Review: I loved the cinematography and quality; it made me want to visit Oxford, and you can tell it's beautiful. Based on a true story, I liked the banter and dialogue at times, and I think it was well-written. I loved how much they referenced C.S. Lewis in this movie, which made me want to pick up more of his books and read them. I didn't really connect with the main guy; he lacked depth, and I wished he was stronger in his faith. Some decisions he made me wonder how serious he was about it. I liked the woman she meets and her journey, but I wish we saw more of it. There was also some cursing, which was okay from the main girl, but the guy also curses, and one line he said bothered me. I didn't really enjoy it or the messaging. I was left wondering why he kept pursuing her when she wasn't fully into him, especially since he knew she wasn't Christian.
          
          Rating: 6/10
