Boston Legal.

I watch this show very occasionally.  Hardly at all.  I think it is a good show, but I never seem to catch any show- and if I do it is never on a weekly basis.  I forget, have plans, forget or just don’t care enough.

I liked last week’s show.  The jist of it was containing a love story.  The guy (one of the lawyers) was chasing after the girl- the following were possible outcomes.

He win’s the case- he loses the girl (because her husband would go free from murder)
He loses the case- he loses the girl (because she would wait for her husband)

It doesn’t look good for him.  In fact he doesn’t end up with her like he would at the end of some perfect love story.  I just thought that maybe this love that he had could be seen sometimes as how Christ loves us.  I know in many occasions this can be a real-world scenario.  I have experienced things similar.. very similar.  Yet I also know friends who have done the same to the person chasing them.

Despite the certainty of hurt, heartache, pain he chose to love.  Not because he had to or was being forced to, rather because he simply Loved her.

How on earth could Christ’s love be like this?  He loves us and pursues us regardless of our outcome at the end.  At the end of the show he was heartbroken and William Shatner’s character had to cheer him up – but it was a solemn ending. 

I hadn’t really even thought of the similarities of the guilty/innocent judge/jury until now, but he is the Judge and jury on our case in life, he holds everything.

This isn’t some preachy message.  Just something I thought of during and after the show while I was texting back and forth with Rebecca.

Endquote -“Marriage is not a ritual or an end. It is a long, intricate, intimate dance together and nothing matters more than your own sense of balance and your choice of partner.”  Marriage.  What a word, especially in this day and age.  It is how I think a relationship with God should be, not so static, but dynamic to every degree.

this was a random blog.  sorry? 🙂
