I Can Carry You! (High Quality)



OK , I admit it , I'm a LOTR nut . Love the books and love the movies. There are so many scenes that move me  . So I'm sure you will see more of them in the future.

This scene near the foot of mount doom , when the toll of the journey and the evil of the ring has taken Frodo into a pit of despair. Unable to carry on . Totally defeated . But the theres Sam . Ever faithful Sam , who walks by Frodo through thick and thin.

When he picks up his friend, placing him on his back and begins that long track up the to the fires of mount doom .  Knowing that it could cost him his life but he is willing. Don't we all want a friend or mate like that. One who can carry the load for you when you can't . One who will not give up on you , no matter what .

I have been blessed in this life with amazing wife , wonderful sons and a few friends , who have walked with me . Ultimately is it not Jesus who carries us . He is the truest of friends . One who will never leave you , nor forsake you. He laid down his life for you , even while you were a sinner .

I will confess , every time I see this scene , my tear ducts do not do well . Just as every time I look at the cross and I'm overcome with the love of God . Amazing scene , that points to a greater truth .

I think that Tolkien wrote the book, and they made that movie, with you in mind. It has everything that you love, in a movie. Even the hero dies, what's not to love? It's a great scene.
FYI, Mr Reg, the wife and family are grateful that you were chosen by God to walk by their sides, as well. Love you, Mrs Reg
