I recently found an RP from when I was actually still a teen. It was about a video game I gave (and still sometimes) a lot of my attention to. Attention that by the time I graduated High School I felt guilty for expending. You see the thing was we give so much of our attention to worldly things we forget about God. But that’s not the story here today, the story I’m trying to convey is that God is HERE amongst us. Moving through us. The Holy Spirit is a very alive and real part of who we are as Christians. We think of the Father as the large overseer on a cloud. The Son is very real to us, the Middle-Eastern carpenter who DIED on a tree for US (I just realized the irony of a carpenter dying on a tree but that is a whole nother blog post). But who is the “Holy Spirit”. Well it’s action is the Breath of God. Think about that… OK admittedly you are wondering what this has to do with Video Games. Well I went of on that tangent to explain about divine influence, yes, even over our video games. Kingdom Hearts has a story that mirrors the Christian Walk very closely, From A King who Made a sacrifice (who thought the little mouse had it in him) to a weapon that expels darkness (The Word of God is a Key if you think about it) and Love being the greatest power of all. (1 Corinthians 13) You see something that I thought I put too much of my time and effort into has the ability to be turned around and expose the Story of God in allegory. In fact the Bible is made up of a massive amount of metaphor. In fact Jesus himself spoke in parables that were stories that made his heavenly knowledge a little more Accessible. He told these stories to the general public, and then he explained their deeper meanings to his disciples in private. When you connect to people on the level they are familiar with, it is possible to help them see what you see. The infallible and undeniable love and grace of God. Ad so much more. So very Much More.
