Fireproof

Chris and I watched the movie Fireproof last night. I highly recommend everyone seeing it, especially those who are married. I am not saying that you are about to see the most wonderful acting jobs or a movie that must have had an unbelievably big budget or that even has the best script. I am saying that you will be refreshed at the type of movie that it is and at the message of the movie.

Christians in America today know that marriages in this country are under attack. This movie is about how wonderful marriage is, about how beautiful a marriage can be with God as the center, and about how important the commitment that you made to spouse is.

Another thing that I really loved about the movie was some of the songs in it. I liked a lot of them but I really enjoyed Love Is Not A Fight by Warren Barfield. Here are the lyrics.

Love is not a place
To come and go as we please
It’s a house we enter in
And then commit
to never leave

So lock the door behind you
Throw away the key
We’ll work it out together
Let it bring us to our knees

Love is a shelter
In a raging storm
Love is peace
In the middle of a war
If we try to leave
May God send angels
To guard the door
No, love is not a fight
But it’s something worth fighting for

To some love is a word
That they can fall into
But when they’re falling out
Keeping their word is hard to do

Love is a shelter
In a raging storm
Love is peace
In the middle of a war
If we try to leave
May God send angels
To guard the door
No, love is not a fight
But it’s something worth fighting for

Love will come to save us
If we’ll only call
He will ask nothing from us
But demand we give our all

Love is a shelter
In a raging storm
Love is peace
In the middle of a war
If we try to leave
May God send angels
To guard the door
No, love is not a fight
But it’s something worth fighting for

I will fight for you
Would you fight for me?
It’s worth fighting for
