Love Dare Day 3

I have to admit that I failed to perform one random of act of kindness for G yesterday. The current of our lives kept me preoccupied and unaware. My head is down, my tail between my legs. I will be better.

But, I was successful in not saying anything negative to him. Mostly because I didn't have time, not because I didn't have anything to say or because I tried so hard to be positive. Fail?

Discouraged, but willing- I welcome day 3 of my love dare.

Day 3
Love is not selfish

Be devoted to one another in brotherly love; give preference to one another in honor. —Romans 12:10

The Dare

Whatever you put your time, energy, and money into will become more important to you. It’s hard to care for something you are not investing in. Along with restraining from negative comments, buy your spouse something that says, “I was thinking about you today."

These words remind me of the Elton John ballad, "Your Song." The lyrics are simple, sweet, and genuine. Just like that song, this dare is simple and sincere.


Forever love,
-A
