Without fail, the waterworks flow every time I watch this video or see this drama performed live. It is an excellent demonstration of the Gospel, and the unfathomable love that our Savior has for each of us.
The video speaks adequately for itself, but it awes me to see that Jesus does not begin fighting for the girl until she begins fighting for him. Prior to that you see him longing for the relationship they had in the beginning, calling to her, and asking God to bring her back to him. Christ's love for us is so great that he wants us to choose him, but will allow us the freedom to be apart from him. This is what makes loving God real and far greater than simply following a set, list of rules. Then you see that once you desire that relationship with him, he'll fight to the end for you.
I had the privilege of watching a group of young Ticos living in some of the roughest neighborhoods in San José perform this Friday night. It was one of the most impacting experiences I have had in my time here.
