"You're not a bad boy."

So I watched Blood Diamond earlier for the first time and it wrecked me in a lot of ways, I hope all of them are good or will be eventually. It was a hard movie to stomach. However, this scene was really beautiful and prophetic. Dia, is the boy, and he was captured and forced to be a child soldier and kill innocent people. Solomon, his father, has spent the entire movie trying to find him and rescue him, and after having just succeeded in doing so at great risk to his own life, this scene happens. It's pretty beautiful, and I'm blown away by the thought that this is how Jesus and our Father receive us.
