LOVE DARE! DAY 2

Day 2——–Love is Kind
images
Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ has forgiven you. —Ephesians 4:32
Kindness is love in action. If patience is how love reacts in order to minimize a negative circumstance, kindness is how love acts to maximize a positive circumstance. Patience avoids a problem; kindness creates a blessing . One is preventive, the other proactive. These two sides of love are the cornerstones on which many of the other attributes we will discuss are built.
It is difficult to demonstrate love when you feel little to no motivation. But love in its truest sense is not based on feelings. Rather, love determines to show thoughtful actions even when there seems to be no reward. You will never learn to love until you learn to demonstrate kindness. First.
Yesterday may have been an easy dare but becomes a little more challenging as we go along!!
But we are all in this together, I hope you got a chance to watch Fireproof if you haven’t already!
