Read the Manuscript

I wonder if you have seen this movie. It came out back in 2000. It is called the Family Man, starring Nicolas Cage and Tea Leoni. I love this movie. It tells the story of a man who had risen to the top of Wall Street. He lived in New York City, was wealthy and powerful, but he didn’t have love. One day he wakes up and he is in a different life. It’s still him, but he is in an alternate reality of where he would be if he had married his college girlfriend. They live in the suburbs, he works at his Dad’s tire shop, they have kids and friends.

Just when he realizes that this life is actually better than what he had before, he wakes up all alone in his penthouse in Manhattan.

If you haven’t seen that movie, my guess is that you are probably familiar with these two stories. On the right is George Bailey from what movie? It’s a Wonderful Life.

On the left is A Christmas Carol, which highlights which main character? Ebenezer Scrooge.

There is one thing that all three of these stories have in common…

Each main character gets a glimpse of what life could be like.

What about you?

Have you ever come to a point in your life when you felt like it just wasn’t worth going forward? Maybe you feel that way right now.

I hope that our story today will give you a glimpse of hope for your journey.
