My true feelings after watching War Room.

Good morning world.  This weekend we saw the movie War Room.  It was great!  I laughed. I cried.  A multitude of emotions ran through me during the course of this movie.

After, I was really really sad and upset with myself.  How many times had I prayed and done studies on how to be a more Godly wife and mother.  How many times had I cried out to the Lord?  Had I stopped too soon?  Had I given up?

I still do not have any answers to these questions.  I am just not quite as upset as I was.  Patrick held my hand after the movie.  I felt nothing.  That scared me some.  I had told him over the years the reason certain things upset me so much was because I cared so much.  That he should be worried when I get to the point that I do not care anymore.  Am I there?

I do not have the answer to that question either.

The only thing I know to do is to pray.  But today, I am not sure I can even do that.  And that is about as honest as I can get.  There are things that have been said  to me that I cannot get out of my mind.  Patrick has said "sorry" for most of it.  However, the words are still there.

I am not leaving my husband or my family.  And I know this too shall pass.  I am grateful I have Jesus to run to.  I just need to start running, I guess.

I do feel some hope though.  Maybe if my prayer life is more diligent and I spend more time in the word and with God.

33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.  Matthew 3:33  NIV

Be blessed and be a blessing,

Just some of my thoughts and actions,

Elizabeth
