My cousin, who makes short films (I honestly didn’t realize those exist as an entire industry, did you?) has two kids.
She posted a video on her public social media a video of her daughter holding her “stuffie.”
The daughter is obviously very excited about it. She asks her what stuffie did she get. She exclaims “Jesus!”
She then asks, “Why did you want that stuffie?”
The little girl says “because it’s Jesus!”
She then pans around to her son, a couple of years older than her daughter, and asks “What do you think about it?”
He says “I hate it.”
I would imagine her ex-husband bought it for her, or maybe my aunt/her mother.
It’s weird how she would want to post it publicly, on her online “actress/producer” profile which is 99% of just herself, her work, and her videos.
She’s obviously promoting not only just “we don’t go to church” with her son (the caption under the video), but being anti-Jesus. Divorced households are tricky, and most often one parent intentionally works against the other parent when instilling values they personally don’t want to see. In this case, my cousin is very encouraging of LGBT, the Bible is not, so guess which values she will want to shake out of her children?
Matthew 18:6
[6] but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.
My cousin grew up in a bible-believing household, or so I thought. She and her mother now both embrace the LGBT choices, and they both are licensed to legally marry them in their state. I, too, once believed “what’s the harm?” in expanding the LEGAL definition of marriage to same-sex couples, but I’ve learned that every sin you allow, more come barging in.
I think it’s beautiful how her daughter, in the midst of all she is facing to keep her from the love of Jesus, desires it. My cousin won’t admit that God is written in the hearts of all, for she’s purposely rejected Him after being raised in a church. But I pray for them all, to see truth and light, and turn to Jesus.
