“See, I am doing a new thing!
Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.”

Brilliant summary by Kylie Malchus on Facebook:

The original Snow White film was a Christian allegory.
The story centers on a girl who is defined by her innocence and purity, reminiscent of Eve in the Garden of Eden.
We first meet Snow White as she draws water from a well—a setting where multiple women in scripture experienced sacred encounters with God.
She sings a plea into the well: "I'm wishing for the one I love to find me today." This "wish" is a prayer to escape her abusive situation.
And of course, her prince finds her as a direct answer to this song/prayer. (No, Rachel Zegler, he doesn't "stalk" her. And no, it's not "weird.") He arrives on a white horse, which might be a nod to Revelation 19:11-16, where Christ rides in on a horse. Jesus Christ is, of course, known as the 𝑃𝑟𝑖𝑛𝑐𝑒 of Peace.
But the queen, our Satan figure, despises Snow’s innocence and orders her death. As a result, Snow is expelled from the safety of the castle into the dangerous wilderness. This mirrors Eve’s expulsion from Eden into the harsh, desolate world where she faces trials and opposition.
The queen’s initial plot fails, and Snow adapts to her new reality. She sings her famous song, "Someday My Prince Will Come." This is not purely a romantic ballad. This is also a song about waiting for God's deliverance.
The queen, however, persists in her plot. She conceals her identity and tempts Snow with an apple. Biblical symbolism doesn't get any more obvious than this.
Snow takes a bite and dies, just as Eve was warned of death for partaking of the forbidden fruit.
But the Prince returns a second time—reminding us of Christ’s promised return—to save her. Through true love’s kiss (or genuine love), he alone could rescue Snow from the apple’s curse. He resurrects her and redeems her from the fall.
In the final scene, the Prince carries Snow to his glowy, ethereal kingdom in the sky. The Prince (the biblical "Bridegroom") carries His bride (the Church) to heaven.
This is the genius of the original Snow White. It can be viewed as a beautiful love story and nothing more—and there's nothing wrong with that. It's a simple enough story for children to appreciate.
But it's also a profound allegory for humanity’s spiritual journey and Christian redemption.
Modern writers, in all their arrogance, think they're so enlightened they can improve upon a classic. But in the process, they're proving they never understood it in the first place.

Even unnoticed kindness heals. Even quiet reparation bears fruit.
Even this ache of being unseen is holy when offered to Him.

He is doing something new in you.Let it begin with grace.

When we feel distant from God, it may actually be an invitation to a deeper awareness of how He is already moving in our lives.

Transitions in life can feel uncertain, but God is already in your tomorrow. Trust His timing, embrace the season you’re in, and walk forward with faith. You are being guided, even when the path isn’t clear. #Faith #TrustGod #NewBeginnings

@realdogeusa We’re mostly a single income family… although I do photography here and there as it pops up. My focus has been on raising and educating my children who I’ve been blessed through adoption and attending to their special needs. But I’m now fast entering retirement years.

@honorablesaint Just finished watching this and then came here and saw your question. I don’t think it was a coincidence. ;) 🙏🙏🙏https://t.co/xq2LvnmEtl

If you do the baby making thing, then fully expect that a baby will be the outcome. 🤷‍♀️
