Pray for Sara :)

Last night Joe and I watched Fireproof, a cheesy, yet good Christian movie about keeping your Marriage together. It really did have a great message and as we were talking about the movie, I said to Joe, "You know, one thing I learned from that movie is how important it is to pray for yourself. I spend alot of time praying for you and your heart and just thanking God for the man he gave me and that I pray that the love continues and that you will feel this way forever. I never think about praying for me and my heart. I don't know why, I just don't ever pray for me."

Kirk Cameron's character in the movie spends his 40 days praying for himself and how he can change for the better and be more loving. So, I thought this was a great thing. I mean, I pray for myself in other ways, to be a good mom, friend, co-w0rker and a wife -- but I never pray for me to have a loving heart and that my heart would stay committed. I am committed now for sure and don't doubt my future commitment to the marriage at all... but I guess I just always pray to God that I will continue to be Joe's one and only true love.

So, I was saying all of this to Joe. He turned to me and said, "You know what started doing for Lent? I have started praying for me and my heart that I will continue to love you and be the husband you need me to be."

So, I said "I am praying for you and you are praying for you."

Joe said, "I guess nobody is praying for you."

We started cracking up... I don't know why it was so funny, but it just was!!

Anyway, I think I will also start praying for me... but if you who are reading could also pray for me, then we would have more people praying for me... ;)) He he!!

I hope you took this blog as light hearted as it was supposed to be. It was just a funny moment.
