All We Need Is Love....

Well...What an absolutely fantastic day I've had today!

God is sooo good! I'm definitely feelin' the love...feelin' the love!!!

Although Mike & I knew that his job loss was among God's plans for our lives, we have really been struggling to see the positives within this circumstance. Today changed that for us...

We went on our first date in months! We used to have date night once-a-month or so, but sadly we let other things take the place of our time together...I know bad-bad! We had a wonderful time! We decided to have dinner and a movie. A treat we rarely experience at all...let alone one that doesn't include goofy cartoon characters and hidden adult humor!

We chose to see FIREPROOF. Awesome...amazing...astounding...and totally surrounded in God's love for all. It was filled with exactly what a movie about finding God should be filled with.
A struggling couple with personal demons and detachment from God. (Been there!!!) The total message was the joy of salvation and how necessary it was to "fill" your emptiness, but showing how loving God would heal your marriage was phenomenal!! Pure genius!

I'm not exactly sure how many men were trying to hide the fact that they were "moved" by the movie, but my main squeeze was sniffling more than I was!!! ( he's such a soft-hearted guy!)
I would definitely recommend this movie to christian and non-christian alike. It has a good solid take on the realities of a "dying" marriage and it totally puts in to perspective the reasons we fall "out-of-love" with our partners!

It seems that this year has been steeped in LOVE for me. Not just giving it or receiving it, but learning what it REALLY is to love....God's love...true love! What a ride it's been! How much I've learned and can't wait to share with those God sends to inquire!

Have you learned about REAL LOVE? Are you ready to experience REAL LOVE? Are you prepared to share TRUE LOVE? Leave me a comment with your thoughts on the matter...we'll pick it up next post......

Ten Thousand Blessings.....
