Anybody Can Be A Bride Today

We know a "Bride" as the beautiful woman at a wedding, but if you are confused by the use of the word "Bride" in this blog...this term is used because we should be living a life in constant preparation for His return just as a "Bride" is constantly preparing to get ready on her wedding day (Revelation 21). We do this by having a relationship with Jesus and living a life that is pleasing to Him. The Christian Church eagerly awaits our wedding day with the Lord! If you have any questions or would like to talk about how to become part of the "Bride" and don't know who to ask, you can ask me, I would love to lead you into a relationship with Him. Read John 3:16 if nothing else!

Don't wait to Fireproof your marriage!

I have been married to my wonderful Christian husband for over four years now. Little did we know that for the last four years, there have been three identical issues that have been on both our minds, but never discussed between us. A little over a month ago we exchanged some very unkind words to each other about one of these three issues and it was the last straw for both of us. We both broke down separately and knew we needed to do something about the way we were heading. I don't know if we were in denial the last four years or if we were just that bad at communicating, we both just held it in and tried to get over it. Well, obviously that wasn't working! That Sunday when we went to church, our pastor mentioned that he and his wife had gone to see the movie FIREPROOF and that if you have ever been married and had problems, been married and never had problems, never been married, were engaged to be married, might ever be married or ever knew someone who has married...that you need to go see this movie. You get it right? You should go see this movie! We did and it really did put a fire in our hearts about how we were treating each other. We have five local movie theaters and only one of them was playing the movie. I drove by the theater again today and it was still playing, so try to take a date night to go see it. I promise you won't regret it! And if you don't see it while it's in the movie theaters then rent it as soon as it comes out. Read Ephesians 5 for a great passage about Wives & Husbands...I am praying for the little big things in your marriage today.
