Venia

A young friend of ours in the Movie industry just came out with his 2nd film called VENIA, (latin), meaning 'grace, indulgence, favor, pardon, and forgiveness'.

Inspiring and convicting, I would encourage everyone to watch this short 9 minute video:

But I say unto you which hear (do), Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you, Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you. And unto him that smiteth thee on the one cheek offer also the other; and him that taketh away thy cloke forbid no to take thy coat also.

Give to every man that asketh of thee; and of him that taketh away thy goods ask them not again.

And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.

But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for He is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil.

Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful.

~ Luke 6:27-31, 35-36 ~
