FIREPROOF

God is so good. Tonight my husband and I saw FIREPROOF the movie and I was left speechless. This is such a powerful movie. There were times I got teary eyed and choked up. The man started to love his wife when he accepted God and learned the love that only God can give. He couldn’t give his wife love until he understood what love was. He couldn’t give what he didn’t have. I glanced at my husband now and again and I held his hand tightly. The wife gave up on her marriage and started seeing somebody else. She would have lunch with a doctor at work and that was the extent of it, but she was letting her affection go elsewhere other than to her husband. The Bible says the heart is easily deceived. We need to lead our hearts. So many times I’ve done things because I felt it was right but it wasn’t. I let my feelings get in the way. What is right is still right even if something else seems better. When I looked at my husband and said my vows “for better or for worse” I meant it. From the looks of the divorce rate people really only mean “for better”. I choose to love my husband even if he doesn’t show me the love I want. God has blessed me with a husband that loves me, but that doesn’t mean times have always been easy. I’ll admit a couple of times I could have easily said that I wanted out, but I love him. I’ve been blessed by a wonderful husband and a beautiful son. A lovely son that I hold and stare at and cherish. The little sleeping bundle of me and my husband formed into our son. I challenge you all to read the Love Dare. It will change your life. Do it everyday and put in 100%. It won’t always be smooth sailing between Ben and I. We will still have fights. We will still get frustrated with one another but we will never leave one another. I am a married woman married to a man I chose to spend the rest of my life with. Its a beautiful thing.
