Why I Love Lost Today

I am so happy Ben Linus found redemption.

Reminds me of people like Peter—or the Jews who stood in the crowd and cheered for Jesus to be crucified but then repented on Pentecost and got to celebrate what Jesus actually accomplished because of and in spite of them.

It is so breath-takingly beautiful when a lost soul is found. When a person chooses to stop making the wrong choices and takes that hard first step in the right direction.

I’m crying right now over my parasocial friend Ben and his conversion on television tonight. Oh well. I feel good about it.
