| sugiggs | says | 'Enjoy life with the wife you love all the days of your fleeting life' Ecclesiastes 9:9 HCSB |
| sugiggs | says | One of the most important things u should learn on your Love Dare journey is that you should not just follow your heart. You should lead it. |
| sugiggs | says | You don't let your feelings and emotions do the driving. You put them in the back seat and tell them where you're going. |
| sugiggs | says | In your marriage relationship, you won't always feel like loving. It is unrealistic for your heart to constantly thrill at the thought |
| sugiggs | says | of spending every moment with your spouse. Nobody can maintain a burning desire for togetherness just on feelings alone. |
| sugiggs | says | But it's also difficult to love someone only out of obligation. |
| sugiggs | says | In other words, love that chooses to love is just as powerful as love that feels like loving. |
| sugiggs | says | In many ways, it's truer love because it has its eyes wide open. |
| sugiggs | says | Left to ourselves, we'll always lean toward being disapproving of one another. She'll get on your nerves. He'll aggravate you. |
| sugiggs | says | But our days are too short to waste in bickering over petty things. Life is too fleeting for that. |
| sugiggs | says | Instead, it's time to lead your heart to once again delight in your mate. Enjoy your spouse. Take her hand and seek companionship. |
| sugiggs | says | Remember why you fell in love with her personality. Accept this person-quirks and all-welcome him/her back into your heart. |
| sugiggs | says | Again, you get to choose what you treasure. It's not like you're born with certain pre-sets and preferences you destined to operate from. |
| sugiggs | says | So now it's time to lead your heart back out. It's time to learn to delight in your spouse again, |
| sugiggs | says | then to watch your heart actually start enjoying who they are. |
| sugiggs | says | The Bible contains many romantic love stories. (then the book telling about Song of Salomon 2:3-4, 2:13-14) |
| sugiggs | says | It's time to remember why you once fell in love. To laugh again. To flirt again. To dream again. Delightfully. |
| sugiggs | says | Today's dare may be directing you to a real and radical change of heart. For some, the move toward delight may be only a small step away. |
| sugiggs | says | Fo others, it may require a giant leap from ongoing disgust. |
| sugiggs | says | But if you've been delighted before-which you were when you got married-you can be delighted again. |
| sugiggs | says | Even it it's been a long time. Even if a whole lot has happened to change your perceptions. |
| sugiggs | says | The responsibility is yours to relearn what you love about this one to whom you've promised yourself forever. |
| sugiggs | says | **Today's dare**: Purposefully neglect an activity you would normally do so you can spend quality time with your spouse. |
| sugiggs | says | Do something he or she would love to do or a project they'd really like to work on. Just be together. |
| sugiggs | says | --end |
| sugiggs | says | *What did you decide to give up? What did you do together? How did it go? What new thing did you lean (or relearn) about your spouse?* |
