The Story of Khalil
My friends from GPO shared to me one particularly interesting video about the story of a man named Khalil. He was a radical Moslem and he was assigned by his superior to write a book that would disprove the Bible and prove that it is wrong. But as he learned more about the Bible, he found out that the Bible is neither wrong or inaccurate, and he became fascinated about the Bible’s teachings about love. From that day on, he was changed, and became a new creation in Christ.
You can find the video on Youtube here:

This video was originally created by More Than Dreams organization.

There you can also find the original version of the video, better quality than the Youtube version but can be quite slow to download at times (I was downloading at 10 kbps at one time, then I paused it, and after a few hours later, I resumed and the download speed went to 200 kbps, so it depends).
The reflection I learned from this movie is about our first love with Jesus. Did you remember when you first knew Him and you had a passion to love others and to read the Bible to know more about God? For most of us, after some years have passed, the flames of passions will wane and fade soon enough. Are we willing to keep searching for the LORD and loving others? This man found love in Jesus and found Jesus through the Bible. How are we responding to Jesus’ love and teachings today? Sometimes we appreciate our relationship with Jesus less and less with each passing day…
