Courageous

I want to say that I tried to make several attempts to take Lauren to the movies to see Courageous but we just couldn't find the time. Lauren and I watched this and I absolutely wept like a baby through almost the whole movie.

I want to back up a little to these past few weeks. Lauren and I were talking, rather texting because I was at work, and I told her that I am not be the leader like I need to be for our family and I am going to change that.

I have started small with the changes, and haven't quite started the way that I wanted, but visits with family this past week and family time at Auburn events did not allow me to fully invest like I intended. I am not going to get down on myself for not starting because we spent time together as a family, and after all, family time is why I am changing.

I also this week turned off our satellite, yes we don't have cable. We do still have Netflix and Hulu because there are some things that we just couldn't quite pull away from just yet. My plan is to begin sharing our journey as a family in our walk with Christ.

I have said it before and will definitely say it again, but our Father talks to us and he was definitely talking to me this week. I was going to start this week by going through the bible bit by bit with the kids with our own daily bible study when Lauren brought home an Easter study for us to do with the kids. It is by no mistake that our Father brought the study to us and allowed me and Lauren to have the chance to watch Courageous tonight. So, tonight, I am publicly stating that I will be a better leader spiritually for my family so that we can all walk in Christ's footsteps a little more each day.
