Swept Away

"Let me ask you something. If someone prays for patience, you think God gives them patience? Or does he give them the opportunity to be patient? If he prayed for courage, does God give him courage, or does he give him opportunities to be courageous? If someone prayed for the family to be closer, do you think God zaps them with warm fuzzy feelings, or does he give them opportunities to love each other?"
Have you ever seen Evan Almighty?
Andy and I watched it last night since we are now getting movie channels(whoohoo!). Steve Carell who plays Evan Baxter, is seriously funny. Hes funny in all of his movies and in The Office. But. I'm not trying to advertise for Steve Carell.
The quote above made my heart feel mushy and I wanted to share. The character who plays God said it.
That's really it. I am sure I would have elaborated had I posted this last night, but I didn't.

In Broome family news:
The truck, Landrover, and my bike are out of service. Actually, my bike is in service, but I don't have the time in the morning to ride it to work. So..
Mr. Broome drove me to work. Don't you know that nothing could delight me more?!


I just got word that the truck is now fixed so no more merried(get it?) rides. Pray my car will make its way home too. I promised myself that once it was fixed I would quit living in it.. treating it like another closet.
