Fire Protection System

So I was inspired late, and I mean LATE last night to ask everyone this simple question:

Do you have Fire Protection? What do I mean by Fire Protection? Look away from your computer screen for a moment and close your eyes and ask the question again! Do you have a Fire Protection System in your home?













This question evolved from a scene in a movie I had the pleasure of viewing last night. The movie of course is

Some of you may know about it and maybe have even watched it. If you have not, I would highly recommend that every man and woman, married or not, make time to view this movie. A great new way to see how God can change any situation, no matter how hopeless or lost you think the situation may be.

Just because something is Fireproof, doesn't mean a fire will never come! It simply means it will help protect it from the fire!
~ This is not an exact quote from the movie but it is darn close and so true! ~

There is a reason for writing this post today and it is simply for the reason that God is amazing and how He works in our lives is just as amazing. Yesterday was a brutal day for me in the sense that my thoughts and emotions were officially not functioning to full capacity. I was having a breakdown! I have a tendency to hold it all in until someone eventually gets the worst of the volcanic eruption! Yesterday it was my wife which endured the sarcasm and hurtful words and the unexpected emotional eruption. Be careful guys about how your emotions control you. When your outbursts of emotion and anger involve another person, you are controlling them too for those moments and during the damaging aftermath that they endure. Think about it again; Are you fireproof? Do you have someone to protect you when the fires come knocking on your door? If you don't, take the time to pray and ask God to install a fire protection system in your home today! After yesterday, I realized that I have not fully allowed God to protect my marriage and that I have put our family at great risk of failure and divorce.
Heavenly Father, I seek your protection over my marriage and the many others which are struggling with little fires and raging fires. Lord I know that through you, all things are possible and today I beg you forgive my ignorance toward our covenant of marriage and seek your restoration in my life and that of my marriage. Lord I pray that you continue to protect healthy marriages and I also pray that you help heal the hearts of those which have experienced divorce and are trying to learn a new way of life. In your son's name we pray.
AMEN
With all the love in my heart,
Andy
