Eat, Pray, Love

Tonight, I saw Eat, Pray, Love. It's about a divorced woman on a journey of self discovery. It's the first book I read when Sam and I were separated and getting divorced. It was the book that actually made me realize that I needed God in my life. Elizabeth Gilbert, the author, said that she needed to find God "right now". I don't have the book right here to give the exact quote, but she said that it had to be "now"...not tomorrow, or in a week, or in a little while. That was a big push for me to start looking for a church home...leading me to my new relationship and love...God.

I've probably blogged about this before...but once my relationship began with God...I started re-evaluating my life and the decisions I had made. Thanks to God, me and Sam got a second chance. The big difference in our lives and the second chance we have is God. We both know that He has to be the center of our marriage. When we got married in 2004, Sam's mom told us that being married consisted of three people in the relationship...you, your spouse, and God. She was so right. I can't imagine it being any other way.
