When I read and reviewed the first book in this devotional
series I was surprised that there are Christians out there that see Anime as
evil. I am not sure why. But saying that, I actually had a parent tell
me that Poe’s stories were evil because they showed the evil side of man. To each his own. I shared this devotional with my grandson who
was excited because they love Anime as does their mother.
Many of these devotions resonated with me. Daddy’s Girl by
Kandi J. Wyatt. Fullmetal: Brotherhood was not something I was familiar
with. However, the way she describes Commander Hughes and his interaction with
his daughter is something every parent can understand. This has been a tough year. I often spoke
with the author and asked for prayer. She always had scripture leading me back
to relying on God. I have to say. There
were days I prayed he would hold me in his hands.
This book impressed me from the very first story. We have
two brothers. One is drawn through a portal into the afterlife. The other
brother sacrifices part of his body to get his brother back, even if not in his
original form. The point is made that the ultimate sacrifice was willingly made
by Christ for us. It was done out of love for us.
This book is not meant to be read in one sitting. However,
it just means I will read it again slower.
I figure each time I read it, God will show me what he wants me to learn
from each one. It is also another book I
recommend to anyone seasoned or new to Anime.
