MY THOUGHTS

My stars! I Can Only Imagine is one of those movies that you won't regret watching. It's one of those that you come away pondering on it. It's one of those that inspires something in you. I Can Only Imagine beautifully and poignantly goes through trials of life that hurts and doesn't know what to do about it. Yet, it's also the acknowledgement of how God's grace and forgiveness shines through the pain. There's a story behind the pain. And that story isn't just the pain, but how it can be used by the pain to turn into something more, and good.

There will be tears. There will be smiles. There will be the longing in your heart to remember your journey, your fight, your pain and God's comfort and grace in your story. O goodness! What a wonderful movie, and the editing is so perfect. I Can Only Imagine will be one of your favorites for sure!

  1. Annie,
    My sister and I saw I Can Only Imagine when it was showing at our local movie theater. It is an amazing story! I bought the book with the same name by Bart Millard, haven't read it yet but hope to soon. I have the DVD on my wish list and hope to get it soon so I can watch it again.
    Blessings, Tina
