My wife's answer was that she was tired of being poor and that our son should be given whatever he wants and any way he wants. Although I disagreed she actually bought him a car and gave him the keys, even though he did not even have a license. And of course, he had to have a Mercedes. When my wife left me and took our (then 15 yr old) son; she left me with our 14 year old daughter; My daughter refusing to go because she felt her mom was immoral/wrong to leave for her stated reasons. Her mom also said that I was a "Great Father and a Good Husband" but that she wanted a better life/better man. Not to mention that her mom often neglected and ignored her, favoring our son. Anyhow, I anonymously left two Fireproof tickets in her mailbox and she went to see the movie with her mom. I met them outside afterwards and the mother-in-law was visibly moved/shaken, however, my wife was cold and emotionless - just as she has been for awhile now. When I bought these tickets I prayed to Jesus and I told him that this was my last attempt to soften my wife's heart and to save my 25 year marriage and my family. And I meant it. It's completely in the Lord's hands now. It's been 3-weeks...and no change. I'll come back again to comment if I have good news. Your prayers for my family are welcomed.Frankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02931967167713746732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-734533623286528799.post-70882277261494780522008-10-07T16:54:00.000-04:002008-10-07T16:54:00.000-04:00Being a single, unmarried guy, I found many parts ...Being a single, unmarried guy, I found many parts of the movie touching and desirable. I pray for that special someone everyday. As Caleb said, "Since I'm married to her, I think I have a head start." Well since I'm single I find the tell tale signs in the movie of what went wrong to aid me in the quest The lord has for me. Now is the building and educating time. I hear a lot of women complaining of their husbands and boyfriends. My question to the guys is... What are you doing as men to lead your heart to love. I just began the book The love Dare and I can't wait until the next day to see what The Lord reveals.<BR/><BR/>Quitting is not an option<BR/>Robert O'GormanInternational relationshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05889181903727797571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-734533623286528799.post-3978483971317483182008-10-07T14:33:00.000-04:002008-10-07T14:33:00.000-04:00I think that they are all valid reasons, with of c...I think that they are all valid reasons, with of course, the prayer coordinator being my favorite! How awesome would it be to work on a film where people actually prayed together? I worked on a tv series (before I was saved) and it was a horrible environment sometimes. I only wish that FireProof was playing in theaters in Canada.Corihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09065659535178284968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-734533623286528799.post-84741027513760796592008-10-07T11:33:00.000-04:002008-10-07T11:33:00.000-04:00I believe number 2 - the fact that the movie reaff...I believe number 2 - the fact that the movie reaffirms the sacred institution of marriage is my favorite but I have to admit number 12 runs a close second! Perhaps if Hollywood thought to have prayer coordinators for their movies, more quality films would be made and less trash would be unleashed!Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12098773588147487119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-734533623286528799.post-35276738322039433592008-10-07T09:27:00.000-04:002008-10-07T09:27:00.000-04:00When I got to number 8, I thanked God that y'all a...When I got to number 8, I thanked God that y'all are genuine!
