I watched the movie, "Marley and Me" last night. It was a really good movie. Especially for those of you who might be classified as dog lovers. It reminded me of everything that is best in a dog and in us. The movie is about committment, sacrifice and unconditional love.
If you identify yourself with the Cross of Jesus Christ then these things are important to you because they were important to Him. He lead us in that kind of lifestyle. He perefectly demostrated those attributes. He set the standard.
Marley and me is a clean, fun, family movie that will set the stage for you to talk to your children, friends and coworkers about the incredible principles that are honored and taught in this film. It is not just about the relationship between the family and the dog. It is about the bigger principle about family sacrificing for one another. It is about committed love between a man and a woman. A woman and her children, a man and his career. Everyone in the movie gives up their personal desires for the greater good of the family, the future and love.
I highly recommend watching it with your eyes, ears and hearts wide-open.
Think through the concept of biblical love, sacrifice and Jesus Christ.

whingsgeWell said brother!! the past couple months have been such a blessing- the financial struggles of being unemployed r truly settin in - we've decided i'm not going to n.d. to work - it would b more burdensome 4 me 2 b away from home trying 2 provide 4 my family - than 2 b broke and fully trusting in the lord 2 provide for us! As he has made it very clear - my next action - thought - step - reveals everything about my faith -
and if i beleive the lord can take care of it or not. The luv i feel 4 my family, and others has been magnified 10 fold - He's SOOOO good
As reread this - i think i missed my point - my old ways, i'd delete the whole thing and start over - my new ways - God says its ok (:
I haven't seen the movie or read the book....that's bad for someone that works in a library!
I've heard really good things about the movie, but your review really tops it all. It's all about love and sacrificing.
Had a good bible study tonight. Pastor Mac was very theaterical tonight...we had some good laughs. I feel blessed at Center Point :-)
