#WISE WORD WEDNESDAY  Pastor Dharius Daniels: Blazy Faith (Crazy Faith)  

We decided to begin posting sermons for a few reasons: 1. One sermon a week just is not enough for some of us. 2. Some of us may not have had the opportunity to attend church last weekend. 3. An easy way to share our faith. 4. It may be just what you need right now.

PLEASE WATCH AND SHARE. IT MAY BE  JUST WHAT YOU OR SOMEONE ELSE NEEDS.

One of the greatest rewards that we ever receive for serving God is the permission to do still more for Him.

BtVS S7 (Rewatch) - Chosen

We’re gonna win.   -Buffy

Rushed, but epic.

Caleb being sliced in two is something very cool to see -  good riddance preacher!

So Angel arrives bringing the ex-machina trinket, and immediately smells Spike on Buffy; interesting that he doesn’t get horrified or even surprised by it - I mean, as far as we know, Angel doesn’t know about the soul yet. And he’s cute when he is twelve… Buffy admits to him that her not-boyfriend is in her heart, and sends Angel away with the “cookie dough” speech:

Because - OK, I’m cookie dough. I’m not done baking. I’m not finished becoming whoever the hell it is I’m gonna turn out to be. I make it through this, and the next thing, and the next thing, and maybe one day I turn around and realize I’m ready. I’m cookies. And then, you know, if I want someone to eat - or enjoy warm, delicious cookie me, then…that’s fine. That’ll be then. When I’m done.

So, kissing Angel inspires Buffy to give the “cookie dough” speech… she realizes she isn’t “done” yet. I, as a Spuffy fan, love it – it’s just Angel gently getting the brush off. And when he’s walking away, she throws him a crumble:

Angel. I do… sometimes think that far ahead. Be a long time coming. Years, if ever.

The saddest truth is that Angel CANNOT move on. Never. He must not find happiness with any woman. He is forever trapped in this existence where there is no hope of being complete, like he briefly had been with Buffy years ago. And she knows that.

Buffy returns home and finds Spike punching an horrible drawing of Angel: it’s hilarious, I mean, the drawing… Spike’s hurt, and reminds Buffy that people “don’t use their tongues to say hello” - well, actually they do… cute. Spike offers himself to wear the magical trinket, and for a second, he thinks Buffy believes he isn’t worth of it; but he’s wrong, and Buffy calls him a Champion - what a long and painful and beautiful journey for him to get to this moment!

Kennedy admits she is a brat, that’s something…

Faith’s indignation about Wood’s opinion on her bed skills is cute… I love her reaction using her hands!

Buffy’s idea to make all Potentials Slayers (after the First’s idiotic babbling) have already been discussed and criticized as something that instead of being empowering was kind of a violation of girls around the world, Potentials that didn’t have a choice in the matter. I agree that it was an imposition of a burden on those girls, but I don’t see it as something wrong at that particular moment, when time was a factor, and they had no other alternative.

So, putting aside the moral implications for a while - the spell performed by Willow and the transformation of the girls at the Hellmouth is something very empowering. Willow going all goddess instead of turning dark is heartwarming, after all predicaments she had gone through, and her fears of using magic throughout the whole season. And Kennedy supports her all the way: Come on, red. Make it happen.

The battle at the Hellmouth is epic, and some Potentials die (and I still haven’t learned their names). Buffy and Spike with their hands in flames – such beautiful image!

Spike dies in an effulgent glory - and thank goodness I knew at the time that he would be in AtS, if not, I would have cried myself to death.

Anya…

When Giles asks “what did it”, Buffy says “Spike” and looks heartbroken at the crater (Buffy’s last words spoken on the show were I love you. Spike., by the way).

The finale ends with hope in the future - and it couldn’t be different - although we all know that things will get very messy in the comics…

I really like S7.
