Fireproof doesn't mean that there will never be a fire. It means that your marriage won't burn down because of the fire.

Yesterday Jeremy and I had the chance to have a nice night in just the two of us! Andrew was staying the night with Tess and Jeremy was able to get off of work early. He met me at the gym and then we headed to Walmart for a movie and some stuff for dinner.
We enjoyed spaghetti and watched Fireproof and then had some cookies for dessert.
It was so fun to have that time with him!
Fireproof is a GREAT movie, too! Very encouraging to couples who know Christ, as well as those that do not. The music in the movie was awesome - I remember hearing Third Day and one of my favorite Casting Crowns songs (Slow Fade).
The movie's point was that you will never know how to really love until you understand the love God has for us. A God that sends his only Son to die for the forgiveness of our sins is real love! I know I didn't know how to fully appreciate or love my husband until I had the love of Christ revealed to me. Not that Jeremy and I had many problems before we came to Christ, but I have no doubt they would've arose at some point and we may have found ourselves facing divorce. We will still have problems in our marriage, like anyone else, but hopefully we will remember to turn it all over to God and He can see us through it.
